Descending the Literary Path from the observation deck,
Senkoji Temple is located on the middle slope of Mount Taiho, overlooking Onomichi Port.

The main hall, with its unusual stage-like design, is also known as the "Red Hall."

The wind chimes were also in the air at the time, adding a touch of color to this spectacular spot.

The Senkoji Temple grounds are filled with impressive megaliths of various shapes.

The "Tama no Iwa" rock formation is the temple's symbol.

The slope is steep and there are many stone steps, so we took the ropeway up.

On the way back, I recommend taking a leisurely stroll down the path after visiting Senkoji Temple.

The nostalgic streets are often used as filming locations!
We encountered cats napping leisurely, creating a unique atmosphere.
