Places Around to Visit
As one of Japan’s rare east-west entrance halls, It is said that if a visitor enters from the east, prays, and leaves from the west, he or she will be guided by the Guanyin to the Pure Land in the West, which is also known as Korori Kannon.
Oyamazumi Shrine is worshipped not only within the prefecture but also throughout Niigata and Yamagata as the mountain god of Nozawa who grants wishes once in a lifetime.
