Area Map
Desolate rocky area, smell of sulphur, sound of rotating windmills. Osorezan (Mt. Osore) Bodai Temple is said to be a place where the souls of the dead gathers, and famous for traditional channelers, Itako. Osorezan Festival is held annually from July 20 – 24, and the area is full of visitors. The channeling by Itako is performed during this period.
