It is called one of the Three Divinities of Zao, along with Zao Daikokuten and Zao Daigongen, also enshrined on the mountains of Zao.

    山形といえば、蔵王温泉やスキー場ですよね、また行く月によれば樹氷というように神秘性の高い景色が拝めます 今回、雪はない時期にいきまして、大丈夫だろうとなめてましたら、上にいくと雪がが大変残ってました笑 さささむい。。。 でもせっかく行ったので、拝みに行く前に、神様と温かいココアを飲んで、あっためてからいきましたが、５分で撃沈笑 さむくて、走ってかえりましたとさ＾＾ でも、景色もきれいでう...

    Yamagata Pref. Obanazawashi Ginzanshimbata In the ground

    Yamagata Yamagata-shi Yamadera 4456-1
    This mound is located inside Risshakuji Temple in Yamadera, Yamagata City. It is thought to be the place that inspired the line “the sound of cicadas penetrates the quiet and the rocks” from Matsuo Basho’s “Oku no Hosomichi.” There is a monument in the grounds left by his pupils with the same phrase written on it.

Yamagata Areas

around-area-map

Although often overlooked, Yamagata prefecture by no means lacks appeal: the Yamadera temple trail through the mountains, deliciously tender Yonezawa wagyu, and over 100 steaming hot springs, most notably Zao Onsen, await visitors. When winter comes, the snowcapped peaks become dotted with skiers by day and onsen-goers by night, while summer brings the celebration of juicy Yamagata cherries.
