There is an unusual large stone inside the grounds of Jishō-ji Temple. Once upon a time, the priest had to let go of his cat because he was very poor, but the cat repaid him by attracting the funeral service of a rich Hatamoto samurai. This formed the basis of the temple's prosperity, and as a token of gratitude to the cat, who went away, the priest placed this large stone inside the temple's grounds and worshipped the cat's spirit for ever after. Because of this legend, the stone is called “Neko-Ishi,” -- cat stone.
The posted coordinates show where Neko-Ishi is. You do not have to go to the coordinates.
