本宮の朝霧

The view from the mountain pass looks just like an ink wash painting

You can see a very beautiful landscape from the mountain pass on the route connecting Hongu, Hongu-cho, Tanabe City and Yunomine Onsen . With thick mist in the valleys the silhouettes of trees against the sun create a beautiful sight, just like an ink wash painting.
