A mountain in the Rokko Mountains, located in the central-southern part of Kobe City, on the border between Nada Ward and Kita Ward. It is 702 meters above sea level. Also known as Hasshu-rei, its southern slope is a steep fault cliff, and from the top of the mountain you can see Kobe Port and Osaka Bay. On the middle slope is Touritenjo-ji Temple (Maya-ji Temple), which enshrines Maya-funin, the birth mother of Shaka. A cable car was built in 1925 (Taisho 14), and there is now a ropeway to Oku-Maya at the top of the mountain. It is part of the Setonaikai National Park.
