Kojoji Temple / Shiomachi Shopping Street

This temple was built on Mt. Choon, northeast of Setoda Port, in 1400. Since ancient times, it has been revered as the temple to protect the town from disasters and blessed it with prosperity. Near the top of the mountain, a vermilion three-storied pagoda was built in 1432, which is designated as a national treasure. Looking it up from the ground is divine, but if you go up the mountain further, it offers a beautiful view of the tower against the Setoda Town and the sea.
