The mountains around Muro-ji served as secret training grounds for Iga ninja, who used the remote, forested terrain to practice their skills away from prying eyes alongside the temple's mountain ascetics.
Muro-ji's five-story pagoda is the smallest outdoor pagoda in Japan, dating to the 9th century. It survived 1,000 years only to be damaged by a typhoon in 1998, then fully restored two years later.
