Established in 1584 as a temple to ward off evil spirits from Kaneko Castle, it was relocated to its current site in 1689 to serve as a protective temple for Takashima Castle and as a place of prayer for the Suwa Domain. The original founder was Suwa Yoritsune, the lord of Kaneko Castle, while the current founder is Suwa Tadayasu, the lord of Takashima Castle.

What visitors say

The garden features a dynamic atmosphere created by abundant flowing water, where large koi can be seen swimming. It is beautiful in spring with a single cherry tree and in autumn with vibrant foliage. Behind the temple lies the 'Benyuki no Hanamomo no Sato' (Red Snow Peach Blossom Village), planted with approximately 160 flowering peach trees. From the grounds, visitors can view the Central Alps and Lake Suwa in the distance. An admission fee is required to view the garden.
