    This is a walk-in traditional Buddhist temple and it is very dark. Inside it smells very nice and there are some nice wall paintings to see.

      The main temple and national shrine Konpon Chudo is currently (2016-2026) fully renovated with historical craftsmanship.
      The entire temple was encased in a steel skeleton hall. Believers and tourists are still welcome and can watch the work on a platform.


      The complex has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
