Great
location
to
start
your
walk
about-
view
the
giant
Goddess
of
Mercy
Statue
then
on
to
the
shrine.
Walking
further
past
the
souvenir
shops
would
bring
u
to
a
route
through
the
park/forestry
reserve
area
with
some
stunning
views
of
a
suspension
bridge.
Quite
a
walk
so
do
go
prepped
with
walking
shoes
n
light
gear
with
a
light
jacket
just
in
case
the
wind
acts
up.
After
approximately
45-60
mins
into
the
walk
there
is
a
turn
off
on
the
left
which
is
signed
(unfortunately
only
in
Kanji)
which
denotes
the
route
down
a
series
of
broad
steps
to
the
caves.
There’s
refreshments
n
a
short
tour
at
the
caves
if
one
is
interested.
In
front
of
the
caves
is
a
bus
stop
which
one
can
catch
the
direct
bus
back
to
Takasaki
Station,
near
to
the
stop
is
a
nice
Cafe
situated
opposite
across
the
road
from
the
bus
stop.
It
serves
excellent
tea/coffee
n
cakes-
a
nice
finishing
touch
to
a
great
walk
about.
The
owner
is
very
friendly,
welcoming
and
very
helpful.
They
also
do
great
dinners
but
we
did
not
have
the
benefit
of
time
to
experience
it.
It
was
a
wonderful
day
trip
to
experience
Takasaki,
Gunma.
