Senpukuji

Gorgeous gingko

This is one of those places that you stumble upon and wonder how on earth it is not famous. For one, it is one of Saitama's most significant temples. Furthermore, it has some gorgeous gingko. Moreover, the Amida statue of the temple is a National Important Cultural Property of Japan. It was made in 1262. Just blows the mind. I have visited here several times over the years and only once I met one other person on the grounds! That blows my mind too!
