Takuboku Ishikawa was born in this temple on February 20, 1898. In the precincts, there is a monument written by Kyosuke Kindaichi, who was Takuboku's lifelong friend, and reads, ``Ishikawa Takuboku Birthplace.'' In addition, a portion of the room where he lived in Takuboku's Houtokuji Temple until he moved there has been restored and preserved.
