Shrine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Located at the westernmost point of the Mino foothills, rising 312 meters above sea level, Mount Kora is enshrined here as a major shrine of the Chikugo region. In the past, this ancient shrine received support from the government. Said to have been constructed in 400 A.D. during the reign of Emperor Richu, Kora Tamataregu Shrine received the highest ranking of a shrine in 897, maintaining its high status by being listed in the Engishiki, an ancient book of Japanese laws. In the Middle Ages, Kora Taisha enjoyed such influence that it could compete with provincial governors. During the Nanboku-cho period of Northern and Southern Courts (1336-1392), this historical shrine received the prayers of Prince Kaneyoshi, a shogun who placed his residence at the base of the mountain. The current inner sanctuary, offertory and hall of worship were built by Yoritoshi Arima, the 3rd feudal lord of the Kurume Clan. The Japanese government has designated all of these structures as Important Cultural Assets. In addition, the shrine houses treasures such as a handwritten copy of the Tale of the Heike, another Important Cultural Asset of Japan, as well as a colored silk hanging scroll depicting the foundation of Kora Taisha, which is a Cultural Asset of Fukuoka Prefecture. On Mount Kora itself, precious natural assets such as Moso Kinmei bamboo grove, a National Natural Treasure, and the sacred rock remains of Kogo-ishi, designated a National Cultural Asset, are preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Okuhita Onsen Resort<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oyama, once an Imperial Retreat, is a scenic area area blessed with Hibiki Gorge and plum trees. Its appearance in the morning haze creates an atmosphere of China watercolor painting. This hotel was an amazing start to our journey with magic hot springs and views across the valley.&nbsp; I took full advantage of the onsen after a long climbing day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is an onsen?<\/strong><br>Onsen are hot baths, fed by the innumerate hot springs &#8211; there are over 3000 in Japan. For centuries hotels, resorts and ryokan have set up around the hot springs. They can be indoors or outdoors and they are an integral part of Japanese culture, as well as, a brilliant way to relax post ride!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-11 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"178\" src=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-178\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/IMG_9228-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Men\u2019s access to the onsen above, one small section of the outdoor hot springs, a much larger indoor hot springs bath  as well as sauna and cold plunge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-12 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" data-id=\"180\" src=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59-1024x771.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59-1024x771.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59-300x226.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59-768x578.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59-1536x1156.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/whos-yo-shogun\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2025\/04\/ed65e33f-f3ad-4b54-be39-6a6aea5f8d59.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>But a Japanese Onsen is more.
