Taneyamagahara Forest Park

A promenade based on Kenji Miyazawa's works has been built in a beautiful forest starting from Yurin Land Taneyama. There are open spaces of various sizes on this trekking course, which the whole family can easily enjoy by observing wildflowers and bird watching.

Manzoji Temple

Manzoji Temple's stone gate, cherry gate, and mountain gate are unique in that they are built in a straight line. Among them, the magnificent Sanmon gate, built by Kesen carpenters using their skills, is said to be the best in Kesen County. There is a fan-shaped bell tower in the precincts, and the main hall boasts the style of the late Tokugawa period.

Koshoji Temple

According to legend, it was founded during the Fujiwara Hidehira era, when an Amida-do hall was built for the Horiko clan who produced gold. After that, it was burnt down, relocated and rebuilt, and burned down repeatedly, but the Amida Sanzon (a prefecturally designated cultural property) surprisingly survived. The main image of Amida Nyorai is made of marquetry, and the side Buddha statue is made of a single piece of wood, both of which were made in the late Heian period. It also has a deep relationship with Hiraizumi.
