Shinshuji Temple
"This Buddhist temple's history stretches back to the Kamakura period; after repeated changes to its name, denomination, and location, it came to settle in its current location in 1604. The temple served as the model for the Rengeji Temple appearing in Toson Shimazaki's novel ""The Broken Commandment,"" and a monument on the grounds is inscribed with the book's first chapter. The temple complex was damaged during the Great Fire of Iiyama and only the original Rokkakudo hall stands today."
