Mount Gomadan(#護摩壇山) is in Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture and Totsuka Mura, Nara Prefecture. The mountain on the border of the two prefecture boasts an altitude of 1,372 meters, and is called “the Roof of Kishu(#紀州の屋根).”🌿🏔 . The origin of the name Mount Gomadan(#護摩壇山) can be traced back to the Genpei War(#源平合戦)around the 12th century, when Tairano Kiyomori(#平維盛), having gotten defeated in the war, reached this area and burned gomagi (a type of wood) to forecast his own destiny. . Mount Gomadan has many places that are famous for their beautiful views of autumn-colored leaves, such as Koyaryujin Skyline (#高野龍神スカイライン) and Imobara Gorge(#五百原渓谷). . In autumn, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the mountain that has turned all yellow. In the vicinity stands a 33-meter tall Gomasan Sky Tower(#ごまさんスカイタワー).🍁🍂 . The tower, built according to the history of Mount Gomadan, has a unique shape that looks like a pile of gomagi. Mount Gomadan is definitely worth a visit. . . . #Japan #thegate_japan #travel #exploring #thegate #Wakayama #Nara#thegate_mountain#visitjapan #sightseeing #ilovejapan #triptojapan #japanesetemple #Japanesemountain#mountainphotography#mountains#beautifulmountains#gomadansan」9月2日 18時30分
