| The interior of the mausoleum is decorated with Momoyama style (luxurious, splended and decorative style created during Momoyama Period) makie (Japanese lacquer sprinkled with gold or silver powder), and the temple has become nicknamed 'Makie Temple' for its many makie furnishings that are said to have once been owned by Kita no Mandokoro. |
霊屋（おたまや）の堂内装飾には桃山様式の蒔絵が用いられ、北政所所持と伝えられる蒔絵調度類を多数蔵することから「蒔絵の寺」の通称がある。 |
