This cashe is concealed in nearby Nagoya City chikusa-ku Yotsuya street "Toganji Temple"
Touganji Temple
Oda Nobuyuki,the lord of Suemori Castle, built this temple in the present Honami-cho during the Temmon period(1532-55)in memory of his father, Oda Nobuhide(1510-51). The temple was named after Nobuhide's posthumous Buddist name. It was moved to this location in 1714.
There is the Japan's biggest fish-shaped wooden drum of a diameter of 1m into the main hall of a Buddhist temple.
There are Nobuhide, Nobuyuki, a grave of Katsuie Shibata and Nagoya great statue of Buddha made by bronze of height when sitting 10m or rare square bamboo in the precincts.
Above all, "Nemuri Benten" is famous, but an admission fee is necessary.
