The main gate was built more than 400 years ago, and the white wisteria blossoms wistfully evoke days gone by.Chosenji TempleA temple built in 1491. Famous for its red three-storied pagoda. You can enjoy the beauty of the peony flowers in late April.

The steps leading up to the shrine straddle the border between Tochigi and Ibaraki prefectures.Bato-in TempleBato-in received the special attention of Mitsukuni Mito, a former vice shogun.
