My Impressions
I guess the big stone named Gojoiwa flew off from another mountain like Mt. Fuji when a volcano erupted, but no one knows for sure. At any rate, it's really worth seeing. Some people climb that rock without rock climbing equipment. I strongly recommend not doing that. Mt. Kinpu is a good choice for beginners, but can be boring for experienced climbers. Gojo-iwa makes it a little more challenging for beginners.
