• The climb to Hansobo involves ascending approximately 250 steep stone steps through the forest, so wear sturdy, comfortable shoes with good grip and allow 15-20 minutes for the uphill walk from the main Kenchoji Temple grounds.
• The shrine marks the starting or ending point of the Ten-en Hiking Course, so consider extending your visit by continuing on this trail that stretches beyond the hilltop shrine into the surrounding mountains.
• Look for the 12 statues of karasu (crow) tengu along the pathway leading up to the shrine, each depicted in different poses as protective attendants of Hansobo who guard Kenchoji Temple against fire.
• Visit during early June to mid-July for blue hydrangeas blooming along the path, or in autumn when the maple trees create brilliant red foliage that blankets the walkway to the shrine.
