In winter, you can rent walking sticks and boots for visiting Mt. Haguro (climbing). Fortunately, it's free. It was OK to take it out by yourself without having to go through any special reception. You will need to return the bicycle during the facility's business hours, so be sure to plan your mountain climbing with plenty of time.

The five-storied pagoda is undergoing renovations so I can't see it in its entirety, but when I was watching a video showing the inside and structure of the pagoda at the memorial museum, I saw a notice posted on the toilet where I stopped by, so I decided to go there. Due to time constraints, I was only able to see the first floor, but I was able to learn about the wisdom behind seismic isolation structures.

It also serves as tourist information, and the facility also offers cane rentals for 100 yen, as well as free rentals of boots, sneakers, etc. for visiting Mt. Haguro. You won't even know it's being rented until you enter the building. I wish there were more signs in the parking lot. I saw many women climbing Mt. Haguro wearing sandals.

This is a facility where you can learn about Haguroyama Shrine and the Dewa Sanzan faith. Also, during the snowy season, this is the parking lot for the five-storied pagoda of Mt. Haguro, and they will lend you the equipment (stocks and boots) you need to access the five-storied pagoda, a Chinese treasure, for free. Inside the museum, there is a paid viewing area, a tourist information center, coin lockers, vending machines, rest areas, restrooms, and a souvenir corner.

I stopped by to use the restroom before hiking Mt. Haguro. There is an admission fee to enter the exhibition space in the back. I didn't take a tour because there was a fee. There is a small souvenir shop. It was a spacious building.
