Places from Mishima’s novels that I visited in Japan

  1. The Kinkaku-ji from The Temple of the Golden Pavilion obviously.
  2. Kenkun-jinja, where Mizoguchi sees a monk smoking
  3. Nanzen-ji, where Mizoguchi sees a woman out breast milk in tea
  4. Ōmiwa-jinja, where Honda meets Isao. This is also one of the oldest Shinto shrines
  5. Tried to find the specific waterfall where Honda and Isao meet, but idk if it’s actually this one.
  6. Enshō-ji, the inspiration for Satoko’s monastery
  7. Not related to Mishima, but Enshō-ji was in this super rural part of Nara and the grass was crazy to me.
    Also went to a bookstore with a bunch of his memorabilia, including some of his letters.
