A very beautiful temple, it has an incredible panoramic view of the city. I advise you to wear comfortable shoes because the climb up to the temple is full of stairs and a bit long.

Fabulous Sanctuary with a great portal Torii in the entrance parking area. 866 meters high. This Hongu Jinja, the matrix original, is one of more than 1000 in Japan.

Total hike took around 3hrs… I went on week day so parking was almost empty:) Definitely a place to visit if you are nearby !
