Such a panoramic view of the mountain

To get to Mt. Ashitake, in the case of public transportation, get off at JR Shohara Station, take the bus bound for "Honmura Daijingu" from there, and get off at the last stop "Honmura". Or take a taxi from JR Shobara Station. In the case of a car, it is common to take National Route 183 from "Kawachi IC" or "Hongo IC" on the Sanyo Expressway, head towards Shobara City, and follow the instructions of "Mt. Ashitake" on site. Ashitakeyama is a mountain located in Honmura-cho, in the eastern part of Shohara City, Hiroshima Prefecture. 815 metres above sea level. It is known as the "Japanese Pyramid" because of the traces of rocks that seem to have been artificially stacked from the mid-abdom to the vicinity of the top of the mountain, and it has been said to be the mausoleum of Emperor Jinmu in the local area for a long time. #hiking
