専称寺

This temple is located along the old Tokaido road just north of the Okabe-juku large inn Kashiwaya. Established in 1594, the temple has inherited moxibustion therapy taught by the Edo period monk Hanzuii Shonin, and it is known as "the moxibustion temple" where the head priests have practiced "Hitohikyuu" (one fire moxibustion). Statues of Saigyo from the Edo period and Fudo Myoo from the Kamakura period (both designated cultural properties of the city) have also been transferred from nearby temples and are enshrined here.
