Mount Otaki in Bizen, Okayama, is home to Fukusho-ji Temple, founded by the Tang Dynasty monk Ganjin and famous for its hydrangeas. The temple's three-story pagoda, designated as a National Important Cultural Property, is a must-see. Visitors can enjoy hiking trails that wind through the natural surroundings and explore the historic temple grounds. The best time to visit is during the rainy season to see the hydrangeas in full bloom. Access is a 60-minute walk from Kōto Station.
