The Japan FAQ | Heisenji Hakusan Shrine, Fukui in 4K ⛩️ 平泉寺白山神社●白山平泉寺神社●福井 ⛩️ Japan As It Truly Is @thejapanfaq | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 10 hours ago
Heisenji Hakusan is an almost magical forest shrine with towering cedars and a huge carpet of moss - a rare delight awaits you.
Heisenji Hakusan Shrine (平泉寺白山神社) in Katsuyama-shi, Fukui, is one of Japan's most beautiful and still a mostly undiscovered gem. Come see what so few have seen yet treasure so deeply. The Heisenji Hakusan Jinja has a history going back to 717 AD as a Buddhist temple, and it has been destroyed 3 times through Japan's many wars and uprisings. Today it is a shrine and occupies only a small area of its vast original holdings. Heisenji Hakusan Shrine is very famous for its gorgeous moss that grows and almost glows a verdant green from late spring until autumn.
