    It is a large temple with a long history. Before that, it is a relocation from Maehara, a tomb where you can see the sea. After all, it is purchased at Nishishin, which is close and convenient. It is convenient along the national highway within walking distance from Nishishin subway. The bus stop is also on the side! If I went to Tenryuji Temple from the beginning, it wouldn't be a waste of money, but it might be because of the B type (smile) I visited it as a sightseeing tour, but it was quite large and well maintained precincts, magnificent main hall, etc., It was a temple worth seeing.

    A Buddhist temple of the Soto sect along the main street. It was moved to the site in the mid-17th century. It is handed down by the second feudal lord Tadayuki Kuroda. In the precincts, there is a tomb of Masuken Kaibara and a literary monument of Momozo Kurata. The mountain gate is also called 々.

    A temple that I stopped by while walking around the city of Fukuoka. At first, I made a mistake at the entrance and saw it from the side of Daitsuji Temple, but I was a little surprised that the temple was large and it was hard to stand next to it. The entrance is on the national highway side, and there is a turret-shaped mountain gate, which was quite splendid.

    I was surprised at the splendor!

    Original Text

    It is a Soto sect Zenji Temple in the Hyakudo / Nishishin area. A ridge of the Shin-Imagawa Bridge over the Hii River. Opposite Jomanji Temple across Meiji-dori that passes through the bridge. I visited for the first time as a tourist from Kurume in early May. The aim was the graveyard of Masuken Kaibara, but what surprised me was the magnificence of the temple, or rather the super magnificence. Both my family and I were amazed. The precincts are super wide. The main shrine is also magnificent, and the Kuri or office is also magnificent. Of course, the mountain gate is also splendid. Anyway, make it fine. My home's evaluation is "this is worth a look". So ...
