    As I walked along the alley of the "Kura no Machi Promenade" in Tochigi City, I could see the temple gate in front of me. This temple is "Kinryuji". It is a temple of the Jodo sect that Ryokai Shonin was built in 1421 on the Jouchi-jukugawara. It is said that it was named "Sanji Santenkoin Kinryuji" because it was a Chinese story "When a carp becomes a dragon in the third grade". There is a "statue of Masanari Kusunoki and Masayuki" in the precincts. It is a commonly known expression of 'farewell of Kusunoki'. ...

    Tomb of literary master

    Original Text

    It is a famous temple of the Jodo sect that was built in Tochigi Castle in the early Muromachi period and moved to its current location at the end of the Sengoku period and continues to the present day. The main hall is a valuable cultural property as a building in the late Edo period. Since the first elementary school and normal school in Yamauchi were established in the early Meiji period, it is a power spot for academic achievement, easy child-rearing and delivery, and the 24th temple in Shimotsuke province. It is known that there is a tomb of Yuzo Yamamoto, a literary master from Tochigi City.

    Jodo sect temple near 'Kurazoku Boulevard'

    Original Text

    It is a Jodo sect temple in Tochigi City. It is a temple with the grave of Yuzo Yamamoto, who is from Tochigi and is known as a writer of "roadside stones". It's close to Kurazuri Boulevard, so I went there. The relaxed atmosphere was comfortable.
