It is 14 meters high from the river level, and the bridge made of vines is 2 meters wide and 45 meters long. It is an important tangible folk cultural property of the country, "Kazura Bridge of Iya". I walked while looking at the valley floor from between the bridge decks. Swaying ~ swaying. It is located in Zentoku, Nishiiyayama Village, Miyoshi City, Tokushima Prefecture, an unexplored place in Japan where the legend of the Heike rakujin remains. If you walk alone, you will be thin, but if you cross with a large number of people, the shaking will not stop. It is counted as one of Japan's Three Odd Bridges, and during the holiday season, it is bustling with inbound tourists.

Minobu-san Kuon-ji Temple 400-year-old drooping cherry trees 2025.03.30 Kuon Temple is full of highlights such as the main hall established as the head shrine of Nichiren Buddhism Nichiren Shoshu entered Mt. Minobu on May 17, 1274 (Bunei 11), and from June 17 of the same year, he made his residence in a soan in the west valley at the foot of Mt. Takatoriyama. As a result, May 17, 1274 was designated as Nichiren Shojin Minobu Entry Day, and June 17 of the same year was designated as the day of the opening of Mt. Minobu. Since then, Nichiren Shojin has been reciting the Lotus Sutra and teaching his disciples for nine years, and on November 24, 1281 (Koan 4), he abolished the old hermitage and built an Authentic Hall, which he named himself "Minobusan Myōhoin Kuon Temple". From HP Impression everywhere you look, such as the magnificent Main gate, the three gates, and the five-story pagoda. In particular, the 400-year-old drooping cherry trees that bloom in the Precincts at this time of year are a masterpiece.

Chowa Town Kikazu Dorokujin A long time ago, an old man used to pray to the god of the ancestors every day so that his grandson's ears could hear. On the way home from praying with my grandson in tow, a strange thunderbolt struck. After that 🌈, a rainbow appeared, and when the two people who had fallen finally got up, the grandson clung 😮 to the old man's leg, saying, "Isn't there a big thunder sound?" When his grandson was able to hear, he jumped up and rejoiced, and offered him an heirloom bowl 👏 At that time, if I used the opposite word, I would and it, and it came to be called "Kikazu Dōsōjin". It's a long time ago story that seems to be horrifying. 😊🌈
