Virtual Quasi-Chichibu 34 Kannon Pilgrimage #5 Zenryu-ji Temple

 

     There used to be Josen-ji Temple in Shimo-Kodanaka Village, founded in the Warring States Period.  Presumably, it was changed into Zenryu-ji Temple before or in the Tokugawa Period.

     The precincts has a building to keep Buddhist tablets of past priests and supporting members of the temple.  There sits a stone statue of Kobayashi Masatoshi (1635-1711), which was chiselld in 1708, 3 years before Masatoshi died.  Kobayashi Family owned part of the village.
