Kuguri Rock On the way to the summit of Mt. Misen at an altitude of 535m in Miyajima, there is a huge rock tunnel, commonly known as "Kuguri Rock". Misen is dotted with strangely shaped rocks and strange stones, and the scenery that fascinates people spreads out. In addition to Kuguri-iwa, there are countless rocks with unusual and mysterious shapes, such as the whale-shaped ``Kujira-iwa'' and the huge monolithic ``Maku-iwa'' said to be 150m tall. These gigantic rocks overlap near the summit, creating a solemn and scenic landscape. highlight The highlight of Mt. Misen, where the Kuguri Rocks are located, is one of the “Seven Wonders” of the sacred mountain where the gods have resided since ancient times. One of them, "Kiezu no Hi", is a spiritual fire that has continued to sprout ever since Kobo Daishi practiced at the summit of Mt. Misen in 806. The water boiled in this fire is said to be effective against all kinds of illnesses, and is also the source of the "peace lamp" in Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park. In addition to this, there is also the “tidal rock” where you can see the ebb and flow of the salt, and it is a highly recommended spot filled with the mystical wonders of nature.

弥山ならではの景観を創り出しているもの。それは、弥山原始林、弘法大師ゆかりの史跡、そして“奇岩怪石”です。これらの岩は、弥山の主な地質である花崗岩が風化して生まれたもので、この奇岩怪石が形成する奇観が、山岳信仰の礎になっていると言われています。また、山頂へ登ると大小の岩石に囲まれた広場があります。遠くは四国・九州の連山、近くは内海に浮かぶ大小の島々を眺望できる、瀬戸内海随一の見晴らしポイントです。通称「くぐり岩」と呼ばれていおりくぐれば弥山山頂へあと一歩の巨大な岩のトンネルです。ここ数年の地震により高さがだんだんと低くなってきたと言われているとかいないとか。

滞在時間5分霊火堂から10分程度上り道を歩くとたどり着きます広島の厳島（宮島）にある「くぐり岩」は、自然が作り出したスポットです。弥山（みせん）という宮島の山の登山道にあって、まるで大きな岩が手を取り合うように寄り添っている形をしています。その間をくぐり抜けられるので「くぐり岩」と呼ばれています。長い時間をかけて風や雨が岩を削ったり、押し合ったりして、今の形になったと言われています。くぐり岩をくぐると「いいことがある」とか「幸運が訪れる」という言い伝えもあるそうです。
