In the 17th year of Keicho, the famous Soto temple was built by Tokugawa Ieyasu. There are tombs of the Asano family and the graves of 47 Ako Yoshishi, and there are also things related to Ako Yoshishi, such as the "main tax plum". The Yoshishi Festival, which takes place on December 14, the day of the death, is a year-end tradition that attracts many worshippers from all over the country. On April 1~7, the Spring Gishi Festival will also be held.
