Chichibu Fudasho No.25 Kyusho-ji Temple
The plaque on the thatched gate of Kyushoji Temple, Fudasho No25,reads "Goteban-ji Temple.
It is said that Shouku Shonin, a Buddhist priest, was given a stone handbill by King Enma during his pilgrimage to Chichibu, and left it at the temple. This is a bill of passage to the afterlife.
If you wish, you can get a print of this bill of passage at the time of sutra payment. When the ancient lotus in Benten Pond is in bloom, you can enjoy a harmonious view of the Kannon Hall. The view of Mt. Bukou from the main hall and the Benten-do area is also recommended. The main deity is the ShoKannon.
