It conveys the Chinese style everywhere, including buildings that incorporate Chinese architectural styles from the Ming Dynasty period, and ritual manners in Brahma that reads the sutras with verses on the sutras. The Daijuhoden (main hall), which is made of hard teak wood, also known as iron wood, is one of the world's most extant wooden structures.

In the precincts, you can eat 3300 yen, a Chinese-style spirit dish "Fucha", which was handed down by Okamoto, and you can also experience 1000 yen of zazen and 2000 yen of the sutra.
