Horaiji Temple & Horaisan Toshogu Shrine
On my way back from Toei, I stopped by at Horaiji. The main tourist attraction of Horaiji was the Horaiji Temple and Horaisan Toshogu Shrine complex. I paid 500 yen for parking and walked down to Horaisan Toshogu. I heard that the Toshogu shrine was one of the top three Toshogu shrines of Japan and designated as a national important cultural property, but the Toshogu shrine was extremely disappointing, compared with Nikko and Kunosan Toshogu Shrines.

Chiiwa Gorge & Oniiwa Rock (Mt. Myojin)
... There was a strange shaped tree there, which reminded me of Ta Prohm of Angkor Wat. (The trees in Ta Prohm was much, much bigger, though.) Getting out of there and walking two minutes, the rock with a view of Mt Myojin through its large hole, Tsutenkyo Bridge, could be seen.
