History
The worship site from afar that this fox knows. From Tanohara, pilgrims gaze upon Ontake, and this sacred place connects their hearts with the summit shrine. Even those unable to climb the mountain can offer prayers for ascetic accomplishment from here. The blessings of the distant mountain continue to descend upon this place.
