I recently went back to see these caves (with my girlfriend) which I wrote about last year as well as the cliff-face hotel carved out by one man which is just round the corner from it. I even wrote about it (well, I did a quick copy and paste job) for my schools in-house magazine which is read by hardly anyone!

I do wonder if any fellow teachers did read it and decide to visit the caves as they are quite interesting and are an easy day or half-day trip away for Tokyo residents.

I have included a few new photos above but if you click on one of the links at the top of this article you can see many more as well as find out about the history and naming of the caves and the fascinating hotel story.
