Visit to Sengaku-ji and Tokuganji

 Visiting the Ako Gishi Graves with Kenji-san, where the 47 Ronin are buried. 

































After visiting the graves of the Asano samurai, Kenji-san and his family took me to Tokuganji  temple where the famlous samurai Miyamoto Musashi had passed through during his travels. 

Musashi had left a number of his paintings in this temple, however they were not on display at this time.  Still, the temple was a beautiful place to visit and even in the hot Japanese summer, I was still able to enjoy being there.
