Shouju-in Temple is famous for the lovely heart-shaped window called Inome-mado. Not only the window, I was fascinated with the beautiful paintings on the ceiling that are different one by one. In summer, you can also enjoy tea in the beautiful sounds of wind bell.

Some well-known places are crowded with people, so you cannot enjoy them leisurely.

So I could sit on the bench and enjoy listening to the wind bells that made me feel cooler.◎10 min walk from Hankyu Minase Station. 12 min walk from JR Shimamoto Station.

Photos taken on July 6th. The annual summer event 'Enmusubi Furin'. I wore Yukata, and came to Kawagoe on the first day of this event. Waking around the path of wind bells, and feeling the comfortable winds, I felt refreshed so much, though the weather forecast was rainy. You can see the beautiful scenery of green leaves and colorful wind bells.

There is a parking lot, only stairs. There are wind chimes in front of the main hall and near the water. You can also take cute pictures with a heart frame and a huge 5 yen object. A sitting statue of Kobo Daishi, about 3 meters long, is enshrined in the hall and has an overwhelming presence. This year, the wind chime festival will be extended until the beginning of October !! It will be lit up in September (the time is undecided).

The limited exhibition of ECO EDO 2018 Nihonbashi. Japanese traditional sounds of wind bell, and the projection mapping and sounds of firework on the street at night. They're something to heal us in hot summer.

I was moved this scene because I've never feel the wind bells around me since then. Hattasan and Yusan-ji Temple, located at the same Fukuroi city as Kasuisai, also display wind bells, and I like them, too.◎From the mid July to the end of August.

The wind chime is a staircase + approach. There are times when it is crowded even on weekdays, so be careful if you go around noon! ︎ There are many frog figurines and it is a paradise for frog lovers! ︎ A cute frog with a red stamp. Many parking lots can be parked jointly with other stores. There are many stairs and it is a gravel road, so be careful of your feet. Wind chime festival until mid-September

The sound of 1,500 glass wind chimes and the colorful wind chimes will make you feel cleansed. You can enjoy the wind chimes at Saikyoji until September 19th. On weekdays, there were relatively few worshipers, so I was able to spend a relaxing time.
