Within this cave is a spiritual sightseeing spot that is home to 33 Kannon statues sculpted by Rakuzan Takahashi.
One walk around this solemn cave grants a comparable blessing to taking a pilgrimage of fudasho temples.
The cave also has a Japanese style garden on site known as 'Tokumeien', which has been recognized as one of the finest gardens in northern Kanto for many, many years.
