▶️A shrine built to enshrine Asama-no-Okami and calm the great eruption of Mt. Asama

▶️There are seven cedar trees over 1200 years old in the precincts, and you can't help but feel their power.

Two of the seven cedar trees are popular as "matchmaking cedars."

▶️The traditional art of "Children's Dance" is a nationally important intangible folk custom and is performed by girls.

▶️A photogenic spot that has become a hot topic on social media!
"Torii in the Sky ⛩"

▶️It takes 20-30 minutes to walk from the main hall of Kawaguchi Asama Shrine, so we drove up to the top.
Please be careful as the road is narrow and only about five cars can be parked.

A short walk from the parking lot to the top

I didn't do my research properly, so I climbed without my wallet and only had my camera, so I couldn't take a photo with the torii gate...it was just at that time that the clouds were covering the area, so I couldn't take a photo of the spectacular view 😢😢😢

I want to try again.
