It is a rock in Hiruzen with the legend of "Ama no Iwato".
There is a parking lot near Hiruzen Herb Garden Herville, and from there it is a 20-30 minute walk up the mountain path.
There are many stairs to climb, so some physical strength is required.

There is an observatory called Rinkukan in front of Amanoiwato.
You can also go very close to the rocks, but be careful as there is a risk of slipping if your feet slip.

From the Rinkukan, you can see the Hiruzen Sanza, and in autumn, if the timing is right, you can see the sea of clouds.

Amanoiwato is not flashy, but it is a recommended sightseeing spot for people who like mythology.
