$Eroded by wind and rain over many long years, this large rock is said to resemble the figure of Amida Nyorai. This 4.8-meter image is also known as the Joroku Amida, a name derived from its height in traditional units of measurement, and good fortune is said to come to those who see the resemblance to the Amida Buddha in this rock.\nRisshaku-ji Temple is popularly known as Yamadera (Mountain Temple). The rocky mountain itself is a sacred location for ascetic Zen practices. Visitors can enjoy breath-taking views along the one-hour path from the foot of the mountain to Okunoin Temple and Daibutsuden Hall at the top. The great Haiku master Basho Matsuo composed one of his best-known Haiku poems “Shizukesa ya/iwa ni shimiiru/semi no koe” in the work “Oku no Hosomichi” (Narrow Road to the Deep North) while walking this path.$

Mount Omine San, Dorogawa Onsen, Kumano Kodo: Mount Omine (1,719m) is strongly associated with the Yamabushi, mountain ascetic hermits practicing the Shugendo, an ascetic religion of oneness between Man and Nature. At least since the Heian period Mount Ominee San has served as a retreat for them to practice on their ascetic and shamanistic rites. Shugendo is an atypical religion blending aspects of Buddhism with prehistoric shamanism.
