In front of the boar statue at Zenkyoan. The temple was founded in 1333 and is also known as the “Inoshishi Dera (Boar Temple)” and “Marishiten-san.” A stone statue boar stands here, and at its feet sits an omikuji holder shaped like a little boar piglet. The temple is dedicated to the sacred hidden statue of Marici, the Buddhist deity of light and mirage. Within the temple grounds, there are many statues and carvings of wild boars, originating from the fact that the statue of Marici is depicted riding a boar.
