Mount Kurama, Kyoto (鞍馬山, 京都) - on Flickr

Tengu Appreciation Post
So, thanks to Yuki, we were able to visit Mount Kurama while in Kyoto. I had no idea this place even existed since apparently it is rarely mentioned in English guidebooks. 

Kurama-yama is where Sojobo (king of the tengu) lives. It’s also supposed to be the place he trained Minamoto no Yoshitsune. So, to my complete and utter delight, the village at the bottom of the mountain was covered in tengu things (both karasu tengu and yamabushi tengu). It was so hard for me to remain dignified and not just fangirl the fuck out.
