Mt. Koshosan

古処山

There used to be a castle on Mt. Koshosan during the time of the Akizuki clan. Even now there are locations named after this time such as the ”Taisho Kakushi” and the ’Oku-no-in’. Near the summit there is a virgin boxwood forest that is a highly precious natural monument of Japan.
