| The temple is built on the site of TAIRA no Shigemori (Lord Komatsu)'s villa, and where the Torodo Hall - so named because he used to light 48 toro (garden lanterns) and have everyone recite the Nenbutsu - once stood, Kanezane KUJO had the site converted into a mountain villa after the Taira clan was destroyed. |
ここには、平重盛（小松殿）の別邸で、48の灯籠をともして念仏させたという灯籠堂のあったところで、平家没落後、九条兼実の山荘となっていた。 |
