There are 33 stone Buddha images at the Sekibutsu-an that were donated by people from across the country in 1805.

These are the same as the Kannon (Buddhist goddess of mercy) images found on the
pilgrimage to the 33 temples in the Kinki area with statues of Kannon, and there is also a monument on the premises engraved with Kannon, the pilgrimage guide.

In addition, an old poem is written on the Kannon-do praying for safety on the road to Kumano.

The bridge piers of this road bridge spanning 90 m and built of brick across the Miya-gawa River in 1905 remain as originally constructed. The bridge is registered as a National Tangible Cultural Property. As the Miseno-Watashi Ferry is not currently in operation, pilgrims head for Misesakatoge pass by crossing this bridge.

Water springs into this well, cool and surrounded by trees, all year, and it was named “Tonosama Ido well” or the “Lord’s well” because it was frequented for rest by the regional Feudal Lord on his falconry outings.

If you look upstream from Saruki-zaka, you can see a bridge nicknamed “Megane-bashi” or eyeglass bridge, an arched bridge constructed of brick in 1904. With a total length of 17 m, one of the two original bridges was buried for the construction of the railway and only one currently remains.

Tamaru Castle was built by Kitabatake Chikafusa in 1336 during the warring years of the Northern and Southern courts. Because of its proximity to Ise Jingu, it was embroiled in many battles as a strategic point. In 1575, Oda Nobukatsu, second son of Oda Nobunaga took over from the Kitabatake clan as part of his father’s invasion of Ise, building a three-story castle tower and becoming castellan. The castle tower was burnt down in 1580. During the Edo Period, Tamaru became the domain of the Kishu Tokugawa family. The castle was largely dismantled during the Meiji Period at the end of the 19th century, but some remains, including the foundation stones of the castle tower, stone walls and the moat, are still there.
