This historic temple, founded in 1373, is standing in a
quiet area with a thatch roofed entrance gate covered with moss. This temple
has a great deal of relationships with the Hojyo family(*). In the guest room, there
are Buddhist tablets of the family standing in line.
In the precincts of this temple, there are huge Kaya tree (=Japanese
torreya 24.5 m) and Tara Yow tree (=Latifolia 19.1 m) designated as a natural
monument of Tokyo Metropolis. Also, there are cherry trees and gigantic Ginkgo
biloba trees. So you
can enjoy the nature of seasons like beautiful views of cherry blossoms in
spring, changing leaves in autumn.
