Mount Nokogiri, located on the Boso Peninsula in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, is a popular destination known for its unique geological formations and cultural significance. The mountain's name means "Saw Mountain," a reference to its jagged, sawtooth-like ridges. One of the main attractions is the Nihon-ji Temple, which features a towering 31-meter stone Buddha, one of the largest in Japan. Visitors can also explore the "Jigoku Nozoki" (Hell Lookout), a dramatic cliff offering breathtaking views of Tokyo Bay.
