There is an admission fee. An admission fee of 300 yen is payable at the entrance. It's very rewarding to see, and it's like going back in time to see the buildings in China. There is also a goshuin stamp, but it is left alone. It can be said to be a good old-fashioned temple. Please come and visit us. And see for yourself. I think each person feels differently...

This temple is said to have been built by the Mori clan. Although it is far from the center of Hagi City, it is an easy place to stop by when visiting historical sites related to Yoshida Shoin and Ito Hirobumi. Once you enter through the entrance with a magnificent gate, you will pass through the vertical grounds and see the large group of stone lanterns at the back of the main hall. There was something so overwhelming about it that I feel sorry for just calling it a power spot. The admission fee was 300 yen, but I guess it's within the acceptable range. As I learned for the first time when I arrived there, I think it was a good thing that there weren't many people there, probably because it wasn't that well known.

This temple was founded by Yoshinari Mori, the third lord of the Hagi domain. It is also famous as a famous spot for autumn leaves. The Mori family cemetery behind the main hall is a nationally designated historic site. In front of the grave are more than 500 stone lanterns donated by feudal retainers. It was a truly impressive sight. I get pounded when I read the sutra. There is a thing called a fish drum that became the prototype for that wooden fish. With a form that makes you think... It was interesting

Beautiful quiet temple a walk up from the Academy. 300yen entrance. There is a lantern-filled graveyard for old retainers at the rear.

Better than shoin shrine, near this place. Can feel quiet dignity from Mouri family graveyard.
