Since it was the year-end and New Year holidays, the reception was only for overnight stays, but the reception and attention to detail were very good.
I was given a map to the next temple, 70th Motoyamaji Temple, and was given detailed directions on how to get there.
Taisho romantic inn. It’s well maintained and well maintained, which is nice.
The surrounding environment is good as well as the nearby Sacred Sites 68 and 69. I think one of the better routes to go to No.70 Motoyama-ji from here is along the Saita River.
I stopped by to leave my luggage because I was tired in the evening on my way to No. 68 after hitting No. 66 in rainy weather in the morning. I looked at the plastic bottle with little water left and replenished it with cold water. I was told that there was a dinner and breakfast plan for the walking pilgrimage, and the reservation was without meals, but it was changed to two meals. Breakfast was also prepared earlier than the scheduled time. Thank you for the landlady, the young husband and the young landlady, for your very warm response.
