[Yamagata] The entire mountain is a sacred power spot

✵
Yamagata Prefecture 2024.01

To Yamadera Temple, where the entire mountain is a place of training and faith🚶

Walk along the long stone staircase approach with 1015 steps.
It is said that climbing the stone steps will eliminate your worldly desires!
A power spot with a mellow atmosphere that will heal your soul🌳

It is also known for Matsuo Basho's haiku "The quietness of the cicadas' voices penetrating the rocks" in "Oku no Hosomichi"💭

The red hall at the top of the stone steps and the observation deck with a panoramic view of Yamagata are must-sees!
