Ankokuronji Temple
You can Trace Nichiren's Footsteps in Matsubagayatsu, Nagoe
This temple was built where the famous monk Nichiren's monastery once stood. Nichiren started writing the Rissho Ankokuron (On Securing Peace in the Land through the Propagation of True Buddhism), a critique of politics and traditional Buddhism which he presented to Hojo Tokiyori, in a cave located in the temple precinct. Visitors can see the ocean and the Zaimokuza area from the Mt. Fuji viewing platform on the mountain behind the temple.
