Written by
Fukusaki Town is located in the southwest of Hyogo Prefecture, formerly known as "Banshu" or "Harima Province." In the past, it flourished as a key transportation hub where roads linking the east and west and the north and south intersected. On May 3, 1956, Tahara Village, Yachikusa Village, and the former Fukusaki Town merged to form the town we see today. Even today, the town remains an important transportation hub, with the JR Bantan Line, Bantan Link Road, and National Route 312 running north to south, and the Chugoku Expressway and Prefectural Route Miki-Shiso Line running east to west. Furthermore, Fukusaki Town is a rural city surrounded by lush green mountains, with the Ichikawa River flowing through the center of town, and is a region rich in history and cultural heritage.
Sala flowers are also called summer camellias.
At Oshoji Temple, also known as the ``Banshu Sala Temple,'' there used to be a large Sara tree that was over 300 years old, but in 1996, the tree died, and there are currently about 200 Sara trees that are its descendants. The remainder blooms neat white flowers.
All things impermanent “Sala Flower”
The sound of the bell of Gion Shosha echoes the impermanence of all things.
The color of the flowers of the Sala tree represents the principle of prosperity and failure.
It hasn't been long since anyone has been able to afford it, and it's just like a dream on a spring night. "The Tale of the Heike"
The word ``Shogyo Mujo'' is used to express that nothing in the world remains unchanged forever.
The Sala flower also appears in the story of Buddha's death, but it is known as an eternal flower that blooms in the morning and falls in the evening, lasting only for one day.
It's beautiful because it's impermanent
Why not feel the change of seasons while looking at the garden that is only available at this time of year?
(Garden admission fee is 500 yen (includes matcha and sweets) *200 yen for visiting the mountain only)

Oshoji Temple
Oshoji Temple is said to have been founded by the Tenjiku high priest Hodo Sennin during the Hakuji era (more than 1,300 years ago). Behind the main hall and study hall is the ``Oshoji Temple Garden (early Edo period, prefecture-designated cultural property)'' which is a place of scenic beauty.
