[Bake-Jizo Statues standing along the Kanmangafuchi Abyss]
Mt. Nantai erupted a long time ago, which greatly changed the geographical features of Nikko.
The rare geographical feature of the Kanmangabuchi Abyss, which has become a sightseeing spot, was also formed by lava that erupted from Mt. Nantai.
Approx. 70 jizo statues appear when you walk around Kanmangafuchi Abyss.
These jizo statues standing along Daiyagawa River are also called “Bake (ghost) Jizo”, as the number of statues will change whenever you count them.
“Lonely Planet”, which shows many famous sightseeing spots in Japan, also introduces many recommended spots in Nikko including the Kanmangafuchi Abyss we introduced today. Please have a look.
