Asamadake Kongoshoji

Asamadake Kongoshoji. It’s quite a hike to get to this place. Unless you drive or use public transport. I chose to hike it.

“Kongoshoji Temple is located near the summit of Mt. Asama in Mie Prefecture, and protects the northeast (= unlucky direction) of Ise Jingu Shrine. As sung in the famous Ise ondo (dance song): ‘If you visit Ise, you must visit Asama, if you don’t visit Asama, your pilgrimage is not completed.'”
