Koetsuji Temple
Cultural figure Koetsu Honami built a thatched house on this land at the beginning of the Edo period, which later became the Hokke Daimoku-do Hall. There are seven teahouses on the grounds, and in the autumn changing leaves season the cobblestone walkways swathed in red and yellow hues is a beautiful sight.

- こじんまりしたお勧めのお寺
- 入口がこじんまりとしており、でも奥は広い。雰囲気よい。周囲の緑もあって市内の真ん中のお寺より涼しい気がする。
