    Visit day に pay attention!

    Original Text

    I don't know when, but when I visited, there were posters at the entrance saying that the days when I could worship were the 1st and 15th of every month. I couldn't go inside, but I could see it through the glass. As you say, it is a temple on the hillside of a fairly steep slope. I rented a car so I could go easily, but I think I need to be quite prepared to walk from the station. Visiting only on the 1st and 15th of every month is a tough condition for travelers, but there is another opportunity ...

    See you な 500 Luohan statues

    Original Text

    It is located on a steep slope all the way up. It's quiet without visitors, but it seems that it is said to be a power spot with a magnificent 500 Rakan statue. There is no photo of the 500 Rakan statue because photography is prohibited.

    Yu の 500 Luohan

    Original Text

    Soenji Temple is located up the narrow steep slope of Minami Otaru, so I think it is good to use a car or taxi. Soenji Temple was relocated from Fukuyama in 1909, and the wooden 500 Rakan lined up on both sides of the main hall, centered on Shaka Nyorai, the principal image, was a masterpiece and spectacular. The 500 Rakans were solicited from Morioka for memorial services, but their production ranged from the Muromachi period to the end of the Edo period, and it seems that they are valuable research materials. The main hall is 9:00 ... from April to the end of October.

    It is a little far from the city of Otaru, and it is a little difficult to walk for public transportation users, but I think it is good to visit after walking. Since it is located quite up the slope, it is recommended that you use a taxi if you are not confident in your physical strength, but there are signs here for 500 Rakan at key points, so I think you won't get lost. There are few attractions in the precincts as a temple, but for this 500 Rakan, it is enshrined in a dedicated building ...
