Mount Shinobu

Mt. Shinobu has become a symbol of Fukushima city. Actually made of several smaller mountains, it rises like an island in the midst of city buildings. The three major mountains are Kumano, Haguro and Hayama. Three shrines on the mountain, Haguro, Gassan, and Yudono bear witness to pious practices of ancient ages. We call it "Oyama". The mountain is an ideal spot for a lovely cherry blossom festival, with trees illuminated for night viewing. Many visitors also enjoy a panoramic view of the city and surrounding mountains from an observation deck, and at any time of year people come to enjoy hiking and relaxation.

NAKANO FUDOSON

When we visit Nakano Fudoson we are seeing one of Japan’s three famous Fudosons. Fudo are the great fearful-looking mountain gods who created a sacred fire, which continues to burn to this day in a votive light in an inner sanctuary of the cave. The three Fudo Myo’s names are Yakuyoke, Ganshhu and Mikazuki, and the spirit of the three fudo assists in granting any serious wish.
