Tachikue Gorge in the mountains south of Izumo City is a scenic spot with cliffs and strange rock formations.
Just the kind of place Yamabushi used to like so it's not surprising that it was a center for Shugendo.
There are hundreds of small statues in ledges and at the base of rock faces including many of the 500 rakan or arhats.
There were half a dozen small Fudo Myo statues as well.
