    it's said that it's the temple where the place name of zushi originated.

    Original Text

    Do you know "Enmeiji"? Zushi, located at the base of the Miura Peninsula, faces Sagami Bay. Enmeiji Temple is a temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect located in a residential area about a 3-minute walk from the north exit of Keihin Express Zushi Station. A monument called the temple where the place name of Zushi was originated was built. Kaisan is said to have been opened as a principal image by Gyoki in the Nara period, enshrining the statue of Enmei Jizo Bodhisattva. The magnificent main hall feels modern. Under the stone steps of the main hall, a statue of a master of training is greeted. Cute question ...

    An active temple seen from Keikyu Zushi Station

    Original Text

    It is said to be a temple related to Gyoki, which was opened during the Tenpyo era. There is also a legend of Kukai in the Shingon sect. Today, the temple is made of reinforced concrete and is also an active temple where the slogan of this world profit and the memorial service for the long term are sung. It makes me think about the management of religious facilities in the city.

    I walked through the Miura Alps and went down to Zushi city and jumped in front of me. It is very close to Shinzushi Station, but the large main hall stands out. It is a temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect and was founded by Gyoki Bodhisattva in the Nara period. Kobo Daishi (Kukai) established a zushi to enshrin Jizo no Mikoto, but it is said that this area was called "zushi" in the past, and it became the origin of the place name "zushi" from the recent days.

    A temple that originated from the name of Zushi City. A lovely Jizo, a majestic main hall, and a temple office with a nice smile.

    Original Text

    It is near Shinzushi Station on the Keikyu Line. It is a venerable temple where Kobo Daishi established a zushi to enshrin Jizo, and Zushi became the place name from there. A cute Jizo will welcome you next to the main hall. There is a small bell at the temple office, and if you hit the money with a corn and refuse to the person in charge, you can freely visit the main hall. It is better to leave the red stamp book first. By the time you reach the main hall, you can enjoy various Buddha statues. Worship Dainichi Nyorai in the main hall ...

    Original Text

    On the left side of the main shrine is a kindergarten, and on the right side is Bentendo, the bell tower, the tomb of Michika Miura, the seven samurai, and the child-rearing Jizo. The important statue was also visible through the glass.
