On Monday, we visited to Kumano Magaibutsu, a grouping of
relief sculptures of the late
Heian or early
Kamakura period in
Bungotakada,
Oita Prefecture.
We stopped our car in the parking lot in front of the entrance, and pay an admission fee (200 yen per person) at a ticket booth. My mom borrowed climbing sticks because she was so tired last time at
Hikosan-Jingu.
Going flat steps for a while, we could see a stone torii gate. From here we must climb up the 99 steps to the top. There's also a legend that this stone stair was built by an ogre in one night.
The road is still ahead.
When we were climbing up the stone stairways, we'll see the big Buddha statues.
Fudo Myoou (不動明王) or the Acala statue that is curved in the big rock wall on the left side. The height is about 8 meters.
The
Dainichi Nyorai (大日如来) statue on the right side. Through it is smaller than the above-mentioned Fudo Myoou, but it is still 6 meters.
We went further up to the road, finally we came to the Kumano-jinja Shinto Shrine.
