Seiunji
川越市新富町２丁目5−４
A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple located in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture. The current main hall is the former main hall of Jorenji in Itabashi Ward, Tokyo, which was relocated here in 1976.
History
The exact date of founding is unknown, but it is presumed to have been established slightly before 1645, when it was opened by the monk Seiun. Some records suggest it may have originally been a Tendai-shu temple named Amida-do in Kozenba-machi, indicating a potentially older history. Detailed records were partially lost in the Great Kawagoe Fire of 1893, leaving the full history unclear.

What visitors say
Although located along a busy city street, the temple grounds offer a solemn and quiet atmosphere. Depending on the season, spider lilies bloom in the grounds, and visitors can experience the New Year's Eve bell ringing and receive Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp). While some surrounding areas are lined with apartment buildings, the temple maintains a peaceful environment for worship.
