Chichibu Fudasho No.32 Hosho-ji Temple
The bell tower (Niomon Gate), the only one of the Chichibu fudosho, has a magnificent plaque reading "Hannya-san" (Mt. Hannya) and a large bell on the upper floor.
After passing through the Niomon gate, stone steps lead up to the main hall, and further on, stone steps carved out of rock lead up to the Kannondō. The Kannondō, built in the stage style, was constructed in 1707.
The inner sanctuary is located at the top of Mt.Iwafune.
