Mount Taisen, Mountain summit in Taketa, Japan
Mount Taisen reaches an elevation of 1,786 meters within the Aso-Kuju National Park, offering views across the Oita Prefecture landscape.
The third feudal lord of Oka domain chose Mount Taisen as his eternal resting place, establishing the Iriyamakobyo Cemetery with mountain views.
The mountain trail connects to Gokurakuji Temple, featuring stone lanterns and steps that represent traditional Japanese mountain worship practices.
Hiking routes to Mount Taisen's summit begin at Kusumi Kogen Palclub Resort, requiring approximately four hours to complete the 26-kilometer journey.
Oike Pond, situated in the volcanic crater below the summit, reflects the red maple leaves and pink Kyushu azaleas during seasonal changes.
