Sakamoto,
a town full of
historical romance
Located at the foot of Mt. Hiei, Sakamoto is said to be the place of Shinto and Buddhist training where Enryakuji Temple and Hiyoshi-Taisha Shrine are located. In the old days of Nobunaga, many masonry craftsmen known as "Ano-shu" who had paid an important role in constructing castles settled here, leaving a number of precious stone walls called "Anoshuzumi" in the area.
