This is the former site of a five-tiered pagoda that was built in 1745. The finial, the piece at the very top of a pagoda, is the only remnant of the structure, which was destroyed by a storm in 1913. It is preserved on the grounds of Tomyodo Temple. The pagoda itself was just over 11 meters tall, one of the smallest in Japan. Even so, it was said to be visible from the sea, some four kilometers away.
From here, the path continues upward to Tomyodo Temple.
