815. Kasamori Kan-non Temple

Shots at the ken's museum.

Kasamori Kan-non diorama Kasamori Kan-non diorama 2

A diorama of Kasamori temple located at Chounan town. Laborious works!

Making this type of stuff requires both time and money. Thanks to the museum's curators in charge for the works.

This temple is purposely built on the place where a big boulder sits on top of a high cliff.

Girder 6-ken (11 m), beam 8-ken (15 m), through-tenon 4-stage, vertical column 61, height 34m
(Upper main-hall: girder 5-ken, beam 4-ken)

Even those who are not in architecture industry must wonder how this was built.

This appearance has been sufficient to attract people's attention.

In fact, Basho's haiku-inscribed stone exhists there. An ukiyo-e as well.

A piece by the Andou Hirosige II is abundant on internet.
As it is old enough and there is no copyright issue, I put it below.

Kasamori Kan-non ukiyo-e Hmm..

In oredr to attract people's attention, it is OK to exagerate to such an extreme.

"Various areas' 100 famous places / Kazusa province Kasamori temple / Kan-non on the rock"

Further the present temple homepage shows "power spots along the 35-dgree latitude", saying;

"2" itself, "4" Mt. Fuji, "8" Mt. Ibuki, "12" Daisen, "13" Izumo great shrine !?

Kasamori Kan-non rayline The head-priest looks to intentionally talk big no less than the "Hirosige II".

I like very much this type of bragging in today's society where people pretend to be overly humble.

813. Hyoutan

Sennnari hyoutann At the nearby botanical garden.

Given that it is an arboretum, various varieties of hyoutan are growing.

The photo is for the ordinary "sen-nari" type.




812. Saru-suberi

Sarusuberi At a nearby street.

Looks it has grown from a cutting.

Took this shot as it blooms so enegetically.




811.@Afternoon coffee

Irimoya Caffee Irimoya Caffee 2

A nearby cafe of a restored old folk house.

No indoor tables. Outdoor seats only.

Thus I took a cup of coffee under the raucous buzz of a min-min cicada on the tree overhead.


Irimoya Caffee 2 The main house behind the shop.
Overnight stay is possible.

Behind the building are a BBQ area and a dog-park.
