Chion-ji
This temple had the highest number of ancient roof tiles and other items excavated during an archaeological study in the past. Here, Shujooni-e rituals were held until the beginning of the Showa Period, but now the ritual is practiced in the form of "Shusho-e". The auditorium where the Shujooni-e ritual was usually held has the architecture of the latter half of the Edo Period, one of the oldest among the halls in "Kunisaki".
