Temples and the largest of Nagano Prefecture. The old temple can trace the story of the founding year as far as AD. 642. Nearly 1400 years ago, or thereabouts.
When the Buddha from India are sent to Japan and be enshrined in this area by the name Honda Yoshikazu Matsuo, the limit has been established as a temple of worship and more. The measure was signed Koji. Translated directly means "Temple of Yoshi Matsumoto limit" itself.
Buddha is believed to be the real Buddha was first brought to Japan. Now that that is hidden in the temple. But no one was allowed to visit even one with the pastor. It will be open to visitors Buddha model every six years. The festival was great Last April 2015, just recently passed away. He was seen again in 2021 I would have to wait a year.
