It is a temple of the Soto sect designated as the 7th Chichibu Kannon Sacred Ground. The precincts have a wide and calm atmosphere, and there is a large main hall in front of it, which is said to have been designed by Hiraga Gennai, but the entrance is a unique structure with a left side. Toyokawa Inari in the precincts has the benefits of family safety and prosperity of business, as well as the characteristic stone pillars in front of the mountain gate, Ebisu / Daikokuten, stone statues derived from Ushifushido, Kannon statues, etc. It is a temple with many rare statues .

I went around the Chichibu Fudasho on foot. If you walk from the direction of Fudasho No. 5, you will feel like you are returning from Fudasho No. 6. It is a large and magnificent temple with a mountain gate. The façade of the main hall is asymmetrical and interesting. I could see Mt. Takeko from the grave in the back.
