About this spot

A historic Buddhist hall designated a National Important Cultural Property, this is a precious building that carries on the Buddhist culture long handed down in the Kuma region to the present day. Surrounded by trees, the area has a quiet, calm atmosphere. Offering an up-close look at historic temple architecture unique to the Hitoyoshi-Kuma area, this is a spot well worth visiting if you come to Taragi Town. Start your summer day quietly from here.

Accessible by car from central Taragi Town. Viewing is generally limited to the exterior, so it is reassuring to check its public access status in advance. Drive to Roadside Station Taragi (道の駅たらぎ) next.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour. Late morning to early afternoon, while it is still cool, is recommended for a visit.
