A colpo d'occhio
Marici-ten, the hidden deity here, grants the power of invisibility and was historically worshipped by ninja and samurai seeking protection in battle and by merchants wanting business success.
The temple's sacred five-pine tree inspired a short story by Izumi Kyoka, one of Japan's greatest authors, who described it as the dwelling place of a demon that punishes anyone showing disrespect.

The temple's main deity, Marici-ten, is a secret Buddha displayed only once yearly on November 29th. If you cannot visit on that date, ask the priest about the deity's significance and symbolism during your visit, as understanding the hidden nature of this protector deity enriches the experience.
Plan to arrive by foot from the Hashiba-cho bus stop (about 10 minutes away), but give yourself extra time for the steep staircase climb at the end.
Bring cash if you want to purchase a victory charm (Kachimamori) or receive a seal stamp, as the temple may have limited payment options.
The sacred five-pine tree (Gohonmatsu) on the grounds inspired writer Izumi Kyoka's famous story 'Five Pines', so take time to observe this ancient tree and learn its literary history from the priest if you have the chance.
Arrive in late afternoon to catch the sunset views over Kanazawa city and the Japan Sea that literary figures like Donald Keene and Akutagawa praised.
Visit on the first day of the month to experience the 'Otsuitachi Mairi' ceremony, which includes a goma fire ritual and dharma talk led by the resident priest.

Maeda Toshiie, the founder of Kanazawa, kept a statue of Marici-ten as his personal prayer object, and the current main hall was built specifically to house it on the castle's northeast corner, the direction believed to need spiritual protection.
The temple's current head priest has been performing goma fire rituals continuously for over 30 years, following the spiritual path of a famous Koyasan scholar he discovered while working as a museum curator.

Pianifica di camminare dalla fermata dell'autobus di Hashiba-cho, a circa 10 minuti di distanza, e concediti tempo extra per la ripida scalinata alla fine. Se vuoi cogliere il tramonto su Kanazawa e il Mar del Giappone, il primo pomeriggio è un buon momento per venire.
Porta contanti per un amuleto della vittoria o un timbro sigillo. Se possibile, visita il primo giorno del mese per la cerimonia Otsuitachi Mairi, con un rituale del fuoco goma e un discorso del sacerdote residente.
Marici-ten è mostrato solo una volta all'anno il 29 novembre, quindi negli altri giorni chiedi al sacerdote il suo significato. Dedica tempo al sacro albero dei cinque pini, che ha ispirato "Five Pines" di Izumi Kyoka.
