Ninosaka Chaya

Candy Store

4.5

A 30-minute walk from Hagurosan Zuishinmon Gate, this popular tea house is located on Ninosaka hill on the approach to Mt. Haguro. Ninosaka is the longest and steepest of all the approach paths to Mt. Haguro. On the left side going up is “Ninosaka Chaya.” Pestle-ground daily, the recommended “chikara mochi” is strong mochi with soy flour and red bean paste, coupled with matcha tea. The pestle–ground strong texture is popular with temple visitors. Also, you can see all of Shonai plains from the tea house, and on a clear day, you get the gorgeous sight of the Sea of Japan all the way out to Tobishima.

出羽三山の山道の途中、二の坂に設けられているのが二の坂茶屋。参道のちょうど中間地点に位置する場所にあるので、下から登る参拝者にとっては休息をしたい場所にあるといってもよい。ここで団子や抹茶を飲むと疲れが癒される。
