興隆寺, Buddhist temple in Yamaguchi, Japan.
The temple complex includes a five-story pagoda measuring 31.2 meters in height, constructed with hinoki cypress bark shingles on its roofs.
Originally named Koshaku-ji in the early 1400s, the temple was relocated to its current location in 1690 following the Battle of Sekigahara.
The temple houses a museum displaying models of major five-story pagodas from different regions across Japan, documenting architectural evolution.
Visitors can reach the temple within 40 minutes on foot from Yamaguchi Station or take a bus to Kenchomae stop for 170 yen.
The Kozan Cemetery within the temple grounds contains the tombs of the last Mori clan leaders, marked by stone lanterns.
