Our guide
Tanzan Shrine in Sakurai, Nara, is also known as Danzan Shrine, Tōnomine Shrine or Tōnomine Temple. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.
Ishibutai Kofun is about 3.3 km away in a straight line. We have not checked opening hours, fees or a public-transport route, so look for local information before you go.
