'This place,' Gensokyo, is a fantastic realm where many girls reside! *A girl is passing by*
About
Major Facilities and Locations in Gensokyo
Hakurei Shrine
Located on the border of the 'Gensokyo' barrier, the Hakurei Shrine is the center of a world where humans and youkai coexist.
The primary resident is Reimu Hakurei, the Hakurei Shrine Maiden. Besides her, various figures like the poverty god Shion Yorigami, the youkai Aunn, and Clownpiece stay or live there.
It is the central point for watching over Gensokyo and a place of exchange where visitors never cease. Objects from the outside world often fall near the shrine. Occasionally, youkai gather here to hold festivals.
Scarlet Devil Mansion
When Remilia and her group entered Gensokyo, the mansion came with them. Due to Remilia's personality, it is a very boisterous place. A vast number of fairy maids work hard at cleaning, security, cooking, and laundry, but since fairies are generally unhelpful, they are busy just looking after themselves. It is said that Sakuya Izayoi is the only one who works properly. The source of their living expenses is unknown. In any case, Sakuya is the only human who would be in trouble if their basic needs weren't met.
It contains a massive underground library filled with countless magic tomes and rare books, as well as a basement where her younger sister Flandre was confined for 495 years. The interior is much larger than it appears from the outside.
It is situated at the foot of the Youkai Mountain, away from the Human Village, near the 'Misty Lake' or on an island within the lake.
For reference, the interior is so large it is practically a maze.
The exterior is a massive Western-style fortress with red walls. Because vampires who hate sunlight live there, it is characterized by having very few windows relative to the building's size.
Eientei
Those who fled from the Moon have used the power of eternity to completely block access from outsiders in order to live in hiding.
The building itself is under the 'Power of Eternity,' which prevents history or incidents from occurring to it, so it never ages despite the passage of time.
Because it is deep within the Bamboo Forest of Lost, it is extremely difficult for humans to find.
Kaguya used her ability to place the power of eternity over the entire building. This is a power that prevents anything that could become an incident or history from happening outside; it is said that while this power is active, no one visits Eientei.
Occasionally, they hold the Lunar Exhibition to display items from the Moon. The exhibition is categorized into ancient lunar objects brought by Kaguya, medieval lunar objects brought by Eirin, and modern lunar objects brought by Reisen. However, most people cannot come to see it because of the Bamboo Forest of Lost.
Youkai Mountain
It was once an active volcano but is now dormant. it is the base for the Tengu and Kappa, youkai who possess social structures. In the past, Oni also stayed here and reigned as the strongest of the mountain. Now, the Oni have mostly disappeared, and the Tengu can be seen as having taken over.
It is an area where people live a modern life thanks to the technology of the Tengu and Kappa. With the support of Kanako Yasaka, they are even experimenting with a nuclear fusion reactor. And it's not just fusion, but cold fusion.
However, because they have built a closed society, they actively exclude intruders who enter the mountain, so their technological prowess is not well known to the outside. There are rumors that they live in large caves formed inside the mountain or that they secretly make holes in the Great Barrier to travel to the outside world.
The Misty Lake is located at the foot of the Youkai Mountain, and since Genbu Ravine is mentioned to be near the Forest of Magic and is part of the mountain's volcanic traces, it seems the Youkai Mountain, Misty Lake, and Forest of Magic are quite adjacent.
The Moriya Shrine is located at the summit.
Hakugyokurou
As a space that already transcends the common sense of the living world, it boasts an incredibly vast garden and a correspondingly long staircase. Youmu Konpaku is in charge of the entirety of Hakugyokurou, including the stairs. Of course, there is no pay or vacation. During the Barrier Incident 60 years ago, when Hakugyokurou became saturated due to a sudden influx of ghosts, Yuyuko once relocated the overflowing ghosts to secluded places in the living world. She was caught and received a long lecture from Eiki Shiki, Yamaxanadu.
If you go to Hakugyokurou, you might be surprised by the many ghosts and spirits since it is the Netherworld, the realm of the dead. Regardless, if you go, you might see Yuyuko Saigyouji or Youmu Konpaku living leisurely.
