Jōshin-ji, Buddhist temple in Hirano, Japan.
Located in a narrow valley leading up from the north of Dogo, Joshin-ji Temple encompasses multiple levels with graveyards extending into wooden hills.
The temple was established by Sadayuki Matsudaira, the first feudal lord of Matsuyama domain, who selected this location for his final resting place.
Three Buddha halls stand before the main structure, each containing Amida Buddha statues displaying different hand positions that represent specific Buddhist meanings.
Information signs in English provided by the Matsuyama Board of Education explain the site details at the temple entrance.
The temple grounds feature numerous camellia trees in red and pink varieties, which are recognized as the official flowers of Ehime Prefecture.
