What visitors say
Usually a quiet and pleasant space, but it becomes lively during events such as the 'Shiman-rokujunichi' (46,000 days) festival. The grounds are well-maintained, with the wooden temple buildings and the large Kannon statue serving as highlights. Restrooms are available for visitors, and the surrounding environment provides a calm atmosphere for worship.
