After passing through the mountain gate, the approach to the temple continues with lush greenery, and you can see the changing seasons. Passing through the splendid mountain gate, Edo wind chimes with delicate patterns beautifully decorate the quiet green maple path from the mountain gate to the worship gate. Under the eaves of the prayer hall, wind chimes made of Nambu ironware hang, producing a different tone than glass wind chimes. On the way to the Yakushido temple at the top of Yusan-ji Temple... The natural forest that spreads out is a precious forest that has retained its appearance from 10,000 years ago. Along the way, you will come across Ruri Falls, which is filled with refreshing air. When Empress Koken was ill, she washed her eyes with the water from this waterfall and her illness was cured, so it is revered as a sacred mountain of the sun. A statue of Acala is enshrined in the shrine. A three-story pagoda stands quietly on the peak. It was built by Minamoto no Yoritomo as a token of his appreciation for the recovery of his eye disease. It is a nationally designated important cultural property and is said to be the oldest tower in Shizuoka Prefecture.
