[Kagawa Trip] A Visit to Yakuriji Temple to Calm Your Mind While Enjoying the Stunning Views of Mt. Goken
Located midway up Mt. Goken in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture, Yakuriji Temple is a quiet yet powerful power spot, known as the 85th temple of the 88 Sacred Temples of Shikoku. ⛩️
Riding the mountain by cable car, you'll be greeted by a breathtaking view of the Seto Inland Sea and Takamatsu city below. 🌄✨
The temple grounds have a tranquil atmosphere, and simply visiting the temple feels like your mind is at peace.
I visited in the morning, and the clear air and tranquility were soothing, instantly relieving my travel fatigue. 🌿
The harmony between the rock face of Mt. Goken and the temple is beautiful, making for excellent photo opportunities. 📸
It's a wonderful place for couples to take in the nature and history, or a perfect place for solo travelers to take time to reflect.
If you're looking for a quiet, moving experience during your trip to Kagawa, Yakuriji Temple is a must-see.
