History
Jigenji, rooted in Fujisawa, is a temple with a quiet and calm atmosphere. It is said to have long provided protection to those who pray for family safety, exorcism of evil, and the fulfillment of their wishes. Surrounded by the lush green trees spreading throughout the precincts, I can spend time with a peaceful mind. It is a suitable place to purify one's mind in silence and solidify new resolutions. The temple's tranquil setting encourages contemplation and spiritual renewal.
