A good name, Ganjoji Temple

Please note that the content introduced here may differ from the current one.

A long time ago, I lived on Ganjoji-zaka. I was a little worried and raised a gate tag called Doryuan, but I was mistaken for a soba shop and removed it in a hurry. At that time, it was a nostalgic memory that the writer K who came to play gave me a poem that began at "Ganjoji, a good name Nari Keri Hagi no Saka".

This temple was founded in astronomy at the end of the Warring States period, but according to temple lore, Nara period. It is said that the Gyoki Bodhisattva named it Ho Kameyama because he found a spring that springs up with the guidance of a turtle, just around Junshaku. It is also known for burial ground, one of the best famous temple in Nishi Ward and one of the most famous people in the history of opening the port.

The cherry blossom trees in front of the gate are wonderful when they are in full bloom.
