All Reviews of Yama-Dera (Hōjusan Risshakuji Temple) page 2

In winter, a lot of the steps are covered in ice. It's really hard and dangerous to walk without crampons!

If you want to enjoy beautiful scenery, you have to take on a tough challenge first.

Climbing over a thousand steps is no joke! I stopped to take photos along the way, so it took me almost two hours to reach the observation deck. The view from the top is super open and refreshing. Such an awesome spot! 👍
