Itinerary
1
Oyama Afuri Shrine
We will walk around the power spots located within the grounds of Oyama Afuri Shrine (Lower Shrine) together with your guide.
Through the torii gate, you will look at a view that samurai and pilgrims have admired for centuries - unchanged, timeless, and quietly powerful.
Beath deeply, and feel the connection - to history, to nature, and to your own mind and body.
At hidden deep in the sacred grounds of shrine, you will find "Shinsen" - a precious spring flowing straight from the mountain. The pure water has been cherished for centuries as a symbol of prosperity and longevity. As you stand beside the spring, you can feel the calm, powerful atmosphere that has drawn pilgrims here for generations.
We will stop by Atagotaki Waterfall. The waterfall is said to have been a place where pilgrims purified themselves before their journey. Feel the refreshing energy of this sacred spot as the cool mist surrounds you.

Hojobo Hinatayakushi Temple
We visit one of Japan's most revered Yakushi (Medicine Buddha) Temple which has been worshipped by people for centuries.
At the entrance, you will pass through the imposing Nio Gate, watched over by two powerful guardian statues known as Nio.
As you walk along the forest approach, the atmosphere changes - the sounds soften, the air feels cooler, and each step brings a quiet sense of anticipation.
Inside temple and treasury hall, numerous variable Buddhist sculptures remain on site, including wooden statue of Yakushi and his attendants.
Feel the shift. Embrace the calm.
And let the spiritual energy guide you forward.

Oyama Temple
At Oyama-dera temple, you can try "the Luck-Throwing Challenge" - throwing the clay plates toward the giant ring below to transform your fortune.
Oyama-dera station is one of the most charming spots. Because the station platform sits on a steep slope, the benches are arranged like steps - each seat at a different level.
