Iwamuro Kannon Iwamu

Iwamuro Kannon Iwamuro Kannon is located at 309 Kitayoshimi, Yoshimi-cho, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture, and is said to have been built between 810 and 824. Its official name is Iwamuro-san Ryusei-in. As you proceed from the hall, there is a cliff with chains attached to it on the left, and if you climb up the chains, you will come across a hole just big enough for a person to pass through while crouching. This is called "passing through the womb" and is said to grant safe childbirth.

Yoshimi Hyakuana Tombs

Yoshimi Hyakuana A group of cave tombs built between the end of the 6th century and the late 7th century, located at 327 Kitayoshimi, Yoshimi-cho, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture. It was designated as a national historic site in 1923. The nearest station is JR Higashimatsuyama Station, about a 15-minute walk away. To get there by bus, take the Kawagoe Sightseeing Bus "To the License Center" from Higashimatsuyama Station for about 5 minutes, get off at "Hyakuana Iriguchi" and walk for about 5 minutes, or take the Kawagoe Sightseeing Bus "To Higashimatsuyama Station" for about 25 minutes, get off at "Hyakuana Iriguchi" and walk for about 5 minutes. You can get up close and personal with the caves themselves, and although the remains of the underground munitions factory are currently closed for inspection and research, you can see them from the outside. It does smell, but it's quite cool even in summer. #summertrip#amazingnature

Yoshimi

Iwadono-san Anraku-ji Temple (Yoshimi Kannon) A temple located at 374 Gosho, Yoshimi-machi, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture, founded in 806. It seems you can walk there from a nearby bus stop, so we walked there from Higashimatsuyama, which took about an hour. The main hall, three-story pagoda, and Niomon gate are designated cultural properties of Saitama Prefecture, and the Nio statues are designated cultural properties of Yoshimi-machi.

Hatchoko Park

Hatcho Lake Park This park is located at 1080 Kuroiwa, Yoshimi-cho, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture, and consists of an artificial lake (Hatcho Lake) and hilly areas created for agriculture. There were cats here and there. The area around the lake is well maintained and has walking and running courses. It can be accessed by car or bus, but I walked there from Higashimatsuyama for about an hour and 15 minutes. There were many cars on the road, but few pedestrians, and the occasional bicycle.

Kuroiwa Burial Caves

Kuroiwa Cave Tombs This group of cave tombs in Yoshimi-machi, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture was designated as a historic site by Saitama Prefecture in 1925. It is located on the north side of Lake Haccho, but the surrounding vegetation made it impossible to get close, so I viewed it from the sidewalk in the park. It seems that very little research has been done, so I wondered whether it would remain natural, and whether various pottery and other things would be found if it were researched. #historicalsite
