Wakusenji Temple
This temple is said to be the most "Arigato" temple in Japan, and is said to give people energy and happiness. It is a temple where dolls are memorialized.
On March 15, 1629 (Kan'ei 6), the temple converted to Nichiren Buddhism and changed its mountain name to Sekiyosan and its temple name to Yusenji. There is a statue of Daiitoku Myoo here, and it is said that if you hold onto the "string of happiness" attached to the statue's hand and make a wish, your wish will come true. The temple is also famous for its doll memorial service.
