Climbing Mount Nokogiri kyonan nokogiriyama This is the main photo of the famous spot known as Hell's Peek Even from a distance, it's scary, right? There is also a ropeway to the top. At the top, there is delicious bamboo ink ice cream🍨 and mochi. It seems that the stones were cut and processed long ago. The stone walls seen from Hell's Peek are spectacular. The mountain is beautifully cut, and it is not a natural cut. You can see it clearly from the highway. ⛰️ It's worth going. I highly recommend it. You can climb the mountain relatively easily even without using the ropeway. The fifth photo shows the largest Buddha statue in Japan, which was carved out of a stone mountain. *Part of the Buddha statue has been repaired It's impressive in size. #0yentravelNovember
