Yasaka Park

In the city of Bando, a comprehensive park with facilities such as an athletics stadium and a swimming pool. There are statues of dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops in the park, which are impressive. In spring, as many as 400 cherry blossoms bloom and many visitors visit.

Sakai Castle Site Park

Sakaii Castle, which was built as the Hōjō clan's base for advancing to the Hokukan East at the end of the Sengoku period. It was left in ruins by Toyotomi Hideyoshi's defeat of Odawara, but the outer walls and earthworks remain today. It seems that the park, where the main temple and the two-tiered temple are located, slipped back in time to the Warring States period, such as restoring the main gate, which was then called the second floor gate, to the original excavation. In the garden, in addition to Yoshino Yoshino in the spring, you can also enjoy the local cherry blossoms, which are single and have dainty pink petals.

Hongkei Temple

The year of Oei 21 (1414) is a famous temple of the Jodo sect, reportedly as the Genjon. A great deal of donation was made by the Tokugawa family to rebuild the main hall and bell tower (currently under reconstruction facilities and cannot be seen), from where they were deeply devoted to the tenth-generation Ryokujinjin, and established it as a bodhi-ji temple. The main hall, which is the best of the temple architecture of the early Edo period, is renovated in 2007. You can feel the power of the Tokugawa shogunate in the Buddhist tools and furnishings. On the left side of the main hall is the tomb of Chihime.

Shomei Temple

A temple of the Jōdo Shinshu Hongan-ji school. The first generation of the Seiki family, Asamitsu, who also participated in the shogunate as a sensei crowd, invited the younger brother of the clan, Shinbutsu, to open. It is said that the name of the temple, the name of the temple, is derived from the name of the law that Asamitsu came to the house and gave it to him. It holds a number of cultural treasures, including the "Shōjo Kanashu", which is said to be the autograph of Kinji, as well as portraits and wooden statues of the morning light, the Mireya Gate, and the Nijomon. At the back of the precinct, where there is a large ginkgo tree and a bronze statue of the saint, there are tombs ranging from the first morning light to the fourth generation Tokihiro.

Private Gardens

An ancillary facility of the Kasumigaura City History Museum, which was a relocation of a wealthy local farmhouse from the Edo period, consisting of two buildings: a thatched main building and Itakura, which used to be a grain warehouse.
