山形県「山寺、戸沢」Yamagata「Yamadera, Tozawa」
Yamadera was a unique experience. The area is name after the common name of the temple Risshaku-ji, founded in 860AD.
This is were Matsuo Basho stopped and penned the following haiku:
静けさや岩にしみ入る蝉の声
shizukesa ya iwa ni shimiiru semi no koe
Silence, and penetrating into the rocks — the cry of the cicada
— Matsuo Bashō
The funny thing about this trip is that we were suppose to take a boat ride in Furukuchi station but we got there late. So we had to kill around 3 hours and decided to go into the woods and found incredible sceneries.
I believe every country is like this, if you decide to adventure in time and just go with the flow you might be able to find some hidden gems.
Please enjoy:
