Mount Myōken (Tajima)

Mount Myōken (妙見山, Myōken-san) is a 1,135.5 m (3,725 ft) mountain on the border of Yabu and Kami, Mikata, Hyogo, Japan.

This mountain is one of Hyōgo 50, and a part of Hyonosen-Ushiroyama-Nagisan Quasi-National Park.

Nikkōin temple is located at the base of the mountain.

Originally, the temple was halfway up the mountain, but the Haibutsu-Kishaku Order issued during the Meiji-era forced the move.

From Ishihara Bus Stop, it takes about three hours to the top.
