    I call it Koseiji.

    It is called Koseiji. Once a month, there is a sutra copying session in the morning and a zazen session in the afternoon. It is also famous for one of the seven wonders of Izumi, a floating cat. It is known for having a garden of Mirei Shigemori.

    Temple information is quite open to the public on the Internet, so it seems that there is not much explanation. The mountain number is Mt. Shinwa and Izumi's Seven Wonders.

    it's a temple related to the fushiminomiya family.

    Original Text

    It was built by the Fushiminomiya family during the Edo period. The garden seems to be famous, and the front garden and the back garden seem to be made in the dry landscape style. The front yard was clearly visible, but in the back you can only see it through the gap in the gate with the chrysanthemum crest. It is a relatively large Rinzai sect temple.

    It's quite famous for the "floating cat" votive tablet, but there was no word of mouth? ??

    Original Text

    It is a temple famous for its floating cat votive tablets, one of the "Seven Wonders of Izumi", but unfortunately it is usually a "private" temple. It belongs to the Rinzai sect Kenninji school. It is the family temple of the Iwakura family of Tomomi Iwakura, the former Iwakuro of the Meiji era. In addition, there is a statue of Kanzeon Bodhisattva made by Jikaku Daishi in the main hall, and the floating cat's votive tablet is posted on Bentendo. When you hear the sound of shamisen, it floats and dances, so a wire mesh is covered. There is also a belief in shamisen improvement, and the garden is a dry landscape by Mirei Shigemori. Today, I showed you except the main hall ...
