History

Byakko

This temple, as I know it, is Kosenji Temple, which has etched its history alongside the hot spring steam of Kusatsu Onsen. It has prospered as a hot spring resort since ancient times, with many people visiting to pray for healing from illness. The efficacy of the hot springs, combined with the sacred power of the temple, heals both the mind and body of visitors. I too would like to experience these hot springs once. Silence is maintained within the temple grounds, allowing for quiet prayer.

Tips

💡
General

境内への石段は急勾配で、冬季は凍結して非常に滑りやすいです。雪が残る時期は滑り止め対策を忘れずに。

湯畑側の石段を登る途中に元禄建立の釈迦堂(遅咲き如来)があります。見落としやすいので石段の途中で左右を確認してください。
