but it is something beyond. Maybe there is no name for that. I just would like to call it simply as Nature, however it is not the nature with awe which overwhelms or terrifies people, like that of Sado. Or, it is also a bit different from what I experienced in Shimosuwa Shrine in Yamanashi. Kunisaki IS similar to that, however this time, say, it is simply much greater in scale. In Suwa, I felt my body in extension TO the nature as the part of it, while in Kunisaki, I felt myself held and embraced BY the nature. I guess the main reason comes from the location where it is, like Sado is in a small island completely separated from Honshu, and Suwa is in the middle of the deep forest but in Honshu, and Kunisaki is not in Honshu, and as the fact that it is in peninsula, which makes the place even more unique and apart from the other places in Kyushu.
