Among them, the black candy karinto manju is often sold out due to its popularity. The original black candy soft serve ice cream is also well-received.

Tokoji Temple

A Tendai sect temple located by the banks of the Yunotani River. The main deity, the seated statue of Yakushi Nyorai, is 3 meters tall and has accumulated hot spring deposits over many years, solidifying into stone. In the past, hot spring water gushed from its left chest, leading to the affectionate name "Yunomune Yakushi," which later evolved into "Yunomine."

Muryouji

A temple of the Rinzai sect, Tofukuji school, founded by the master Kokan. In the 6th year of Tenmei (1786), when the temple was severely damaged by a tsunami, the monk Gukai rebuilt it, and his friend, the painter Maruyama Okyo, painted the sliding door paintings for the main hall as a celebration of the reconstruction, which were delivered to the temple by his disciple Nagasawa Rosetsu. During his stay at this temple, Rosetsu also left behind many fusuma paintings, which is why Muryouji is also called "Rosetsu Temple."
