Pay the 400 yen entrance fee to enter the sculpture gallery and garden behind the main hall. The wood carvings of Lotus Sutra scenes and the Japanese garden are often listed as the temple’s top features.

Visit on weekdays or early mornings if possible, as the temple can get quite crowded on weekends and holidays, especially the three-day holiday periods when the nostalgic shopping street leading to the temple becomes particularly busy.

Look closely at each wood carving panel. Made over 100 years ago by master craftsmen, each panel was carved from 20 cm thick boards with unique faces and lifelike animal figures.

Explore the shopping street (sando) leading to the temple for reasonably priced traditional snacks like dango and senbei that you can enjoy while strolling, offering a nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of smaller versions of Kamakura or Narita-san.

Look for the preliminary sketches by renowned artist Yokoyama Taikan that are displayed casually within the temple complex, offering insight into the creation process of the magnificent carvings.
