Chomeiji Temple
"This temple, under the direct control of Kyoto Honganji Temple, is located about 10 minutes away from the Aizu-Wakamatsu Interchange on the Ban-Etsu Expressway. It is known as the site of the fiercest battle in the city of Aizu Wakamatsu during the Boshin War. Just one tombstone, marked only ""war grave,"" indicates that 145 of the Aizu clan's war dead, who were not allowed to be touched after the fierce battle because they belonged to the rebel army, are buried there. There are still holes in the earthen walls and other parts of the building that were pierced by shells from that time, showing the intensity of the war."
