I went to visit the Seven Lucky Gods at the beginning of the year. There was a picture at the gate and it was soothing. I went to 1/2, but there were a lot of people, probably because of the influence of the Seven Lucky Gods Stamp Rally in Fukuya.

　It is a temple on the historical walking path of Futaba no Sato. According to the temple legend in front of the gate, it used to be a large temple that bundled more than ten temples, but it was all destroyed by the atomic bomb. It is said that it is a new temple that started again in 1975. The new garden with good broom eyes is well maintained and very beautiful. Many of them are eye-catching, such as the monument of "Knowing I'm Enough" and the huge waterbed. There is a memorial service for Kuranosuke Oishi and his father and son in the connection of the Asano family who governed the Hiroshima domain.

There is a memorial tomb for the father and son of Kuranosuke Oishi, Yoshishi Ako.

Shokoji Temple at the foot of Mt. Futaba. It is impressive that the tower gate is long sideways like a castle gate. The old coin-shaped garden made in the garden in front of the main hall was also interesting. And there are many frog figurines in the precincts where you can enjoy your eyes.

I went there for the first time on a tour of the Seven Lucky Gods. It was one of the oldest temples in Hiroshima and was a temple of the Soto sect. When I entered the three gates, there was a stone statue of Fudai-son on my right. I wanted to visit the main hall, but it was closed. I didn't get a red stamp because there was no sign of people.
