Zhien Temple is dedicated to Kirito Manjusri, the Bodhisattva who controls wisdom, and prays for success in studies, similar to Emperor Cangwenchang. The gate of Chionji Temple is the largest in the Tango area. What’s special here is the signed poem in the shape of a fan. If the fan is hung upside down, the surface of the fan will change from thin to wide, which means it will gradually become more beautiful. The adjacent swing bridge, the bridge connecting Amanohashidate and Monjudo land, when a large ship wants to pass, the swing bridge will rotate 90 degrees to allow the ship to pass (from time to time)
