Hiking
The Daisho-In Temple is located in a valley, somewhat off the beaten track, as there are several steps up, and not everyone wants to climb those extra meters. However, if you do, you'll miss out on one of the most beautiful temples on Miyajima.

Hiking
An indescribably beautiful temple complex that simply must be experienced. The more than 500 stone Buddhas in the park, some of them surrounded by moss, are truly beautiful and always make for good photographs.

Hiking
The Daisho-in Temple is one of the most important temples of Shingon Buddhism. It is located at the foot of Mt. Misen, where founder "Kobo Daishi" on the island "Miyajima" practiced Buddhism for the first time.
From the temple grounds of Daisho-in, a hiking trail leads to the summit of Mount Misen, where there are several other temple halls. The climb takes about 1.5 hours.
