25 Bodhisattva Hall

Okago Christian Martyrdom Park

At the beginning of the Edo period, more than 300 Christians were martyred in the Okago area of ​​Fujisawa-cho, Ichinoseki City, also known as the Shimabara of Tohoku. The Martyrdom Park was created to convey to the present the noble history of martyrdom of Okago's predecessors, who persevered in their faith despite any persecution. The Cruz Hall in the park displays sculptures by sculptor Yasutake Funakoshi, and the historical museum recreates the appearance of the time with martyrdom dioramas and other displays. Please use the city bus to access Martyrdom Park. For more information, please see "Access" on the Martyrdom Park homepage.

Shidate Park

Located on a small hill surrounded by peaceful countryside, the view is refreshing. It is crowded with people during the cherry blossom season. In the middle, ``Shishimizu'', a famous water symbolizing Hanaizumi Town, which is a village of springs, gushes out.

Strangely shaped rocks “Meotou Ishi”

Located at the entrance of Tennozan Park. The black granite symbolizing men is a huge rock with a circumference of 10m and a height of 5m. There is a rock symbolizing a woman nestled next to it, and its placement is quite funny. Regarded as the god of marital harmony and the god of creation, many men and women come from all over the country to worship.
