Tateriko Shrine, also known as Kojin Shrine, is a hidden gem located in the Southern Nara Prefecture. Nestled atop Kojin Mountain, this shrine offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. Legend has it that the founder of Shingon Buddhism Mikkyo, Kukai, enshrined a picture of Sanpo Kojin here to protect and prosper the teachings of Mikkyo. Today, visitors can explore the shrine's main hall and admire the mystical line of wooden torii gates that lead the way. Don't forget to keep an eye out for the mesmerizing sea of clouds that often graces Mount Kojin during the early morning hours. It's truly a sight to behold!
