Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden at the Sampou Daikoujin Temple inside Tsurumi Soujiji Temple area.

*Soujiji (multi cache): (visit link)

At the small hill in the big Soujiji Temple area, there's a small temple enshrining Sampou Daikouji.

Sampou Koujin God derives from Buddhism, however it's Japanese original local God. Not so many Sampou Koujin temples.

The cache is hidden near this small temple. On the hill, you can also see the bell tower of Soujiji, memorial statue of Dr. George Trumbull Ladd (1842-1921) who had been an aid of Japanese government in Meiji era.

The area is closed after 21:00.

キャッシュは総持寺のエリアの、三宝大荒神を祀ったお堂の近くにあります。

総持寺の大きなエリアの中に、小さな丘があり三宝大荒神を祀ったお堂などがあります。

三宝荒神とは、インド仏教に由来しますが日本で奉られた神です。三宝荒神を祀ってあるお寺はあまり多くありません。

キャッシュはこの小さなお堂の近くにあります。この丘には他に、鐘楼や、明治政府高官の側近として活躍したジョージ・T・ラッド博士 (1842-1921) の碑などがあります。

このエリアは21時には入れなくなるようです。
