The Bodhisattva of Wisdom, whose lion can be passed under

The principal object of worship of the Monju-do Hall of Shingu Kumano Shrine is worshiped by the local people as the bodhisattva of wisdom and learning. It is said that those who can pass under the lion will become more intelligent.
Nagatoko, a National Important Cultural Property, is a building made in the shinden style at the end of the Heian period as the Kumano Shrine’s hall of worship. The 800-year old sacred ginkgo tree on the grounds creates a splendid sight that adorns Nagatoko from season to season.
