Jobutsuji Temple
Last updated on March 12, 2021.
There is Seibutsu-ji Temple right next to Keiun-ji Temple. At the time of the opening of the port, Seibutsu-ji Temple was devoted to the dormitory of American missionaries.
It is said that Hebon lived in main hall and Brown lived in kitchen hall. This is written in a letter Hebbon addressed to his friend.
According to the report, the large main hall was partitioned with sliding doors to create a room of only eight large and small. As a result, it is written that the large garden, which has become much more livable, is also beautiful.
Brown is also a person who worked hard to translate the Bible and hymns. （Pamphlet on the History of Kanagawajuku）
