Mystery Of Mossy Forest Reminds Us 'Princess Mononoke'Shiratani Unsui Gorge
I like a movie 'Princess Mononoke' by Hayao Miyazaki, and I walked in Yakushima Island's Shiratani Unsui Gorge that is said to be a model of the movie. Its inner place is called 'Mononoke Forest', and I was very impressed with the great forest covered completely with moss!◎Access by bus or taxi
