A collective name for Mt. Okumotori (966m) and Mt. Myoho (749m) in the northern part of Nachikatsuura Town, Wakayama Prefecture. Since ancient times, many ascetics have entered the mountain due to the belief that Kumano is the land of roots and eternal life, and it has also been considered Fudaraku Pure Land. At the northern foot of Mt. Myoho are Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine, one of the Kumano Sanzan, and Seiganto-ji Temple, the first temple of the Thirty-Three Temples of the Western Provinces. The entire mountain is covered in primeval forests of cedar and cypress (natural monuments), and Nachi Falls is located in the north. It is part of Yoshino-Kumano National Park. In 2004, the Kii Mountain Range was registered on the World Heritage List of Cultural Heritage under the World Heritage Convention as a sacred site and pilgrimage route. →Related Articles Kannon|Nachikatsuura [Town] Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
