Myohonji Temple
Yato, where Tragedy Struck the Hiki Clan
The Hiki clan served Minamoto no Yoritomo but was crushed by Hojo Tokimasa (1138-1215). A survivor, Hiki Yoshimoto, offered his mansion to Nichiren and today a temple stands on the site. The temple is known for beautiful shaga irises in early summer and for autumn colors. With a reservation, visitors can join a class to copy a sutra by hand.
