Oshu 33 Kannon No. 18 Matsuzawayama Rokkakudo

Surisawa Hachiman Shrine

According to the outline of Hachiman Shrine, it was built in May of the 17th year of Kan'ei era, rebuilt in August of the 3rd year of the Jokyo era, and rebuilt in August of the 13th year of the Kyoho era, and is an outstanding structure with excellent design. In addition, the ``Hachiman Shrine Monument'' in the precincts states that Minamoto no Yoriyoshi, who had a difficult time in the War of the Nine Years, prayed for Hachiman Shrine in Yamashiro and was victorious in battle, so the shrine was built and enshrined here. The main hall is a cultural property designated by the prefecture, and houses the town-designated cultural properties, such as the Warabite sword and the armor of Surisawa Hachiman Shrine.

Wooden Kannon Bodhisattva Seated Statue

The statue, which is 114.3 centimeters tall and is enshrined at Higashisen-in in Ichinoseki City, is made of coniferous wood and finished with lacquered wood. It shows the sculptural style of the late Heian period, and is thought to have been created by a Buddhist sculptor who was involved in the construction of a temple in Hiraizumi during the third Fujiwara era in Oshu. The carvings are excellent, and the statue is in good condition as an inscribed statue, and it is one of the few in the prefecture that has all three parts: halo, pedestal, and Dharmakaya. In 2018, it was designated as a national important cultural property.

Sansaikan Fujisei

Ichinoseki's specialty "Hitokuchi Mochizen" is a registered trademark of Fujisei. In 1991, we devised the ``Hitokuchi Mochi Zen'' to make it easier to enjoy mochi dishes. We pound the highest quality glutinous rice, ``Koganemochi,'' at our restaurant, and create handmade mochi dishes made with local ingredients. Of course, no additives are used. As a specialty of Ichinoseki, it is enjoyed not only by locals but also by customers from far away. When you come to Ichinoseki, be sure to enjoy freshly made mochi cuisine, the best hospitality in this region. We believe that our spirit of hospitality will be conveyed to you.
