    A temple famous for Yamabukiso, which also has a pet crematorium

    Original Text

    It is located along National Highway 139. It is a temple famous for the cluster of Yamabukiso, a natural monument of the prefecture, and is in full bloom during Golden Week. The temple was opened in 1346, and there is a record that Ieyasu Tokugawa stopped by and had lunch on September 28, 1589. The 500 Rakan (actually 200?) is also spectacular, but the hidden and famous "pet memorial service" is. There is a crematorium for pets and there is a grave, so it seems that it is famous for those who have pets.

    A beautiful temple.

    Original Text

    It is a temple where you can see a very rare yamabukiso. In addition, it is a treasure trove of plants and the garden is well maintained. The location is convenient because you can worship on foot from the station.

    The only temple in Tsuru City, the dog pudding Chan, is a famous dog who appeared on TV to be a good person

    Original Text

    It is a temple where the yamabuki grass blooms in spring and has fun 々. Is it special to sprinkle beans in spring or New Year's Eve? Bean sprinkles gather children and a full-fledged demon comes. On New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve soba and amazake are served, and instead of bells, young people in the local drum circle echo the sound of drums in the night sky to celebrate New Year's Eve. Karate, where local children receive guidance from the chief priest of Hokyoji Temple, has a great performance at the tournament every year.
