Oku-no-In means 'the inner sanctuary', and it's a name given to temples and shrines that are set back, away from the taint of the world. Behind Omishima's grand Oyamazumi Shrine, I found signposts to Oyamazumi Oku-no-In. I had to see this! I followed the path, and although I wasn’t impressed with what I found at my destination, the journey itself was marvelous.

Oku-no-In is very well signposted. There's no mistaking the route
The path winds up past some nice old houses. Here's an old well with some flowers growing from a crack.
Very pretty against their concrete background
A little goat bleats a greeting. Hello little goat
Lillies sprout from a bollard. Yonder mountain looks dry and rocky
Yes indeed. I won't be climbing that today
Wow! The path goes through a tree!
This place is really well signposted! This is getting exciting!
