    A temple located about a 10-minute walk from Utsunomiya Station. There is a sitting statue of Roshana Buddha in this temple on the landscape mark of the Utsunomiyagawa Muko Post Office, and it is the first visit. It is a fairly large sitting statue of Rojana Buddha, and the history of the construction of the chief priest at the time of the Edo period is very interesting.

    It is a temple of the Tendai sect founded by Sakanoue Tamuramaro in 796. The statue of Roshana Buddha is a cultural property designated by the city, and when you enter the precincts, you will sit in front of you and catch your eye first. It is also said to be the Great Buddha of Utsunomiya.

The Great Buddha, which is over 5m tall, along with the height of the pedestal and the seated statue in front of the main hall, was just shining in the Asahi and looked shining. It is said that the three grains of soybeans that were peeled in the precincts were built with fruitful funds. ...

    the big buddha will welcome you.

    Original Text

    The first thing that surprises me when I enter the precincts is the big Buddha sitting in front of me. According to the explanation, it is 3.6 meters high. It was quite 々. The main shrine was behind the Great Buddha. It is located in a residential area a little far from the center of Utsunomiya, but if you have time, you should stop by.
