Hiking the Kumano Kodo (Fujishiro-oji Site)

Hiking the Kumano Kodo (Fujishiro-oji Site)

Last update

The Fujishiro-oji Site is renowned as the gateway to the sacred Kumano realm. Historically, it was a prestigious place where nobles, emperors, and retired emperors stayed during their Kumano pilgrimages. Nearby, the Suzuki Residence served as a vital resting and lodging facility for pilgrims. At Fujishiro Shrine, which stands on the site, you can offer formal prayers for safe travels and blessings, followed by an insightful hiking tour guided by local volunteers.
