Iden-san Shinko-ji
渋川市渋川７４８
A Tendai sect temple located in Shibukawa City, Gunma Prefecture, with a history of hosting a discussion hall (tangi-sho) where many scholarly monks gathered.
History
Founded in the early Heian period by the Great Master Jigaku Daishi Ennin. During the Eicho period (1394-1428), the monk Eikai Ho-in relocated the temple to its current site and revitalized it. In the early Edo period, the monk Jozon rebuilt the temple, establishing it as one of the five major Tendai temples of the Kanto region (Kan-hasshu Goka-ji).

What visitors say
Known as a famous spot for cherry blossoms, it is particularly popular for its magnificent weeping cherry trees, which appear to be several hundred years old, and the blossoms blooming beyond a tunnel-like gate. The temple grounds are very spacious, offering many sights such as charming halls, numerous stone monuments, and giant trees. There is a free parking lot, and visitors can enjoy a quiet atmosphere while visiting, with hydrangeas lining the approach path.
