One typical example is the Omiwa-jinja shrine of mount Miwayama, and even smaller shrines located at the foot of shintai mountains (mountains regarded as kami-body) that often maintain iwakura (dwelling place of a god on top, usually a large rock) or shinboku (sacred tree.) |
代表的な例では大神神社(三輪山)などがあり、小さな神社でも山麓にあるものは山頂に磐座や神木を持つことが多い。 |
