Mitaki-dera Temple
temple
三滝寺
Moss-covered temple hidden in a valley, reached by stone steps through cedar forest.
Located on the slopes of Mount Mitaki just outside central Hiroshima, this atmospheric temple is famous for its three waterfalls ('Mitaki') and profound tranquility. The grounds are covered in lush moss and dotted with stone statues and Jizo figures, creating a mystical vibe often compared to Kyoto's moss temples but without the crowds.
