Gukyōji Temple - Joso

It is a temple related to Senhime. I came here for the first time, and it was wonderful that cluster amaryllis bloomed all over the site! It seems that the best time to see this year was early.

Famous for Senhime's Bodaiji Temple! A temple related to the Tokugawa shogunate.

It is a temple of the Jodo sect in Toyookamachi, Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture. The mountain number is Kotobuki Kameyama. The name of the institute is Tenjuin. The principal image is Amida Nyorai. In the 21st year of Oei (1414), Iinuma Village, Okada District, Shimousa Province (currently Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture) was opened by the opening of Ryocho, a disciple of Shosō Kaisan, who was a disciple of the Nagoe-ryu Hojo family. ) Was built. Shimotsuma castle owner Shigetsune Tagaya was placed in the temple and was devastated by the war, but with the opening of Hideyasu Yuki, the second son of Ieyasu Tokugawa, Yukigukyo Temple will be rebuilt. It was revived by the 10th generation, which was also worshiped by Ieyasu, and in the Edo period, the danrin of the Jodo sect was set up. It is a temple that has a deep connection with Senhime, as the main hall was donated by Senhime, the granddaughter of Ieyasu, who received the five-fold biography from the completion of school. It seems that there was a magnificent sword that relocated the palace of Senhime, but unfortunately it was returned to ash in 1906. However, there are many remains of the Tenjuin Temple (Senhime's graveyard), relics, and related items, which conveys the style of the past to the present day. The highlight is Senhime's grave, but not only that, but also the cherry blossoms in spring, cluster amaryllis and seasonal flowers in autumn, and the big cedar trees are wonderful. I didn't know where to get the red stamp. I would like to visit again during the cluster amaryllis season.

It is a temple famous for cluster amaryllis. The cluster amaryllis that grows in the shade of the forest is very beautiful, and many photographers Σp [[◎]] ω ・ ´) visit.

Many cluster amaryllis are in bloom. Many people have a camera at this time of year. It is also blooming on the opposite side of the approach to the parking lot. There are also a small number of yellow and white cluster amaryllis. The photo is as of 9/14, and there are still some that will bloom in the future, so I think I can enjoy it a little more.

During the blooming season of cluster amaryllis, you can enjoy a magnificent view. There are many people taking pictures. Cars from outside the prefecture are also flickering ... This Kokyoji Temple is famous for the tomb of Senhime. The hair is buried ... You can get the red stamp at the office on the right side of the main shrine, but it may be difficult to understand because it looks like the entrance to your house. When you go, apply an insect repellent to yourself before you go. I heard from the locals that they are in trouble because some people bring their precious cluster amaryllis. It's theft. Buddha and Senhime are watching. I'm sure there will be great punishment in the near future. Don't look at, take pictures, touch or take home the cluster amaryllis.
