Ohatsuki-icho Ginkgo Trees of Reizanji Temple

Precious Wood
On Mt. Reizan in the northern end of the Nunobiki mountain range and Reizanji Temple within it, there is a variety of ginkgo tree called ohatsuki-icho. Characterized by the fact that its seeds grow on the leaves, the trees there are bigger than others of the same species and plentiful. It was designated a Prefectural Natural Monument in March 1996. When the autumn leaves are at their peak, the trees are very beautiful and colorful. In addition, Reizanji Temple is also the starting point of the climbing path for Mt. Reizan. There are colonies of asebi (Dwarf Lily-of-the-Valley) and Japanese holly at the summit, and easy to stop by when on a hike. Reizanji Temple's sekibutsugun (group of stone Buddhas) has been designated a cultural property by the city, and is a very attractive photography spot.

    紅葉がみごろということで、予定を変更して、立ち寄りました。細めの林道が結構つづいた山の中腹にお寺があります。境内にあるイチョウが真っ盛りでした。根元一面が黄色い絨毯状態で鐘楼もイチョウの葉で覆われていました。桜の名所ということですが、黄葉もよいです。あと、途中のため池でリフレクションがみれました。

    紅葉してるかな-?って思い行ってみましたが、もみじは一本のみ。後はドウダンツツジが一本。桜はたくさんあったので、春がオススメ。道は狭い山道なので、くれぐれもご安全に。

    霊山寺の隣の登山口から、霊山に登りました。一時間ほどで頂上まで登れます。頂上からの景色は、とても綺麗でした。
