Mt. Kasuga Primeval Forest
As the site of Kasuga-taisha Shrine, Mt. Kasuga is a sacred mountain, and as such the felling of trees from its forests has been forbidden for over 1,000 years. Mt. Kasuga Primeval Forest was classified as a World Heritage site in 1998. You can enjoy a peaceful walk through the forest, starting from just beyond the path to Kasuga-taisha Shrine....
