Konpira-dai-gongen

And further up the hill is the actual Shinto temple called Konpira dai gongen. The temple sits on Mt. Zozu in the town of Kotohira, Kagawa prefecture of Shikoku. There's a good view over the northern territory of Shikoku. I couldn't help but think it'd be easy to spot ninja spies infiltrating from up this high.

It feels somewhat holy seeing the town below from so high. This is what the gods must feel like. And also what kings and queens and rulers of old must have felt like.
