Onomichi is well known throughout Japan for the numerous writers and poets
who were inspired by the city's beautiful scenery and quiet lifestyle, and the Path of
Literature is a silent reminder of this.
The Path is dotted with 25 stone monuments
on which have been inscribed some part of the famous authors' works. Take a stroll
down from Mt. Senkoji on the Path of Literature and let yourself be soothed by its
quiet atmosphere. Let the poems made by those who loved Onomichi fill you with
dreams and wonder.
