History
The Shoan-ji Temple that I visited is a temple with a quiet and calm atmosphere located in Naganuma-cho, Sakae Ward. Its serene precincts soothe the hearts of visitors. As a temple rooted in the community, it is a place that has been loved by many people. It is a good place to leave the hustle and bustle of daily life behind and quietly purify one's mind.
