Kumano Kodo Daimonzaka

Daimonzaka is one of the most picturesque sections of the Kumano Kodo, preserving the historic atmosphere beautifully. It features a 640-meter-long stone-paved path leading to the sacred Nachi Mountain. 💦💦 Surrounded by moss-covered stone steps and ancient cedar trees over 800 years old, this historic trail offers many highlights, such as the "Meoto Sugi" (Married Cedars), the "Juichimon Sekiato" (site where tolls were collected), and the "Furigase Bridge," which marked the boundary between the sacred and the secular worlds and served as the entrance to the spiritual realm. Visitors can also experience wearing Heian-era costumes, which gives a feeling of stepping back in time when you see others dressed up. ✨ While it requires some physical stamina, this is a highly recommended spot for an unforgettable experience! 🌳
