Daimon Gate attraction highlights

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

The gate is the gate of Koyasan, which was previously thought to be the entrance to Koyasan. The original location of the gate was lower than the current location, and the current location is said to have been moved 1100 years ago. Burned down several times since then, the current gate was rebuilt in 1705. The 25-meter-high vermilion gate has the majesty as the entrance to Koyasan. In addition, next to the gate, there is a statue of King Kong Rishi, which is the second largest statue in Japan after the Nio statue in Todaiji Temple in Nara. A image and Hum image are both about 5.5 meters high.
