This deep forest, covered in some 600 species of moss, was the inspiration for the film Princess Mononoke. Half a day there and back, Yakushima is also recommended for amateur trekkers.
One of the main attractions of Shiratani Unsuikyo is a part of the forest that served as the inspiration for that Studio Ghibli animated film Mononoke Hime (Princess Mononoke). Oga Kazuo, the lead artist for the film, spent lots of time here working on sketches for the movie's forests. The mountains of the film were further inspired by Akita Prefecture's Shirakami Sanchi Mountains.
