Kenkonzan Nihon-ji Temple

#2024wish Definitely one of the best hiking areas I have been to around the Tokyo area. It took 1.5 hours to get to from Chiba Station. Not sure how long it takes to get to from Tokyo. I thought it was worth the long trek. There are some nice seafood restaurants around in the town. People in the town are really friendly and nice as always in Japan. Cost for the just the park was 700 yen. There is the cable car to take you up and down, but you can hike all the way to the top and down if desired. Cable car is 1200 yen round trip. There are some amazing granite walls and stone carvings there. However, the highlights are the cliff hanging overlook, 50ft Buddha carved into the granite wall, and the Great Buddha (which I missed and didn't see.☹️) Don't miss any of the highlights like I did. Lol. Really well constructed trails, stairs, and paths. I wish to travel more in 2024
