History
Iwamatsuji is located in the spacious rural area of Hanyu. I enjoy strolling around this temple. It is a temple with a history of gathering faith from local people since ancient times. As soon as you step into the precincts, a refreshing atmosphere fills the air, as if your heart is being cleansed. In the main hall, there is a calmly standing Buddha statue, watching over the prayers of visitors. This temple has been an unchanging spiritual refuge for the local residents since long ago. Its historical appearance and warm atmosphere gently embrace visitors.
