Hortênsias demarcam o caminho para o Portão Sanmon.
The temple Saijoji was founded in 1394 in Sagami (modern Kanagawa Prefecture) by Ryoan Emyo Zenji, who was once chief priest at the head temple Sojiji. Numerous Japanese cryptomeria cedars contribute to the solemn, mystical mood of the grounds, where there are more than 30 halls and temples, including a pagoda in the Treasure-Tower (tahoto) style erected in 1863.

As crianças meditam com expressões calmas em seus rostos.
The following story is told of Saijoji. One day, a great eagle seized Emyo Zenji's surplice, flew with it to some mountains, and hung it on a large pine bough. Taking this as a sign, Emyo Zenji had the temple built at that location. The pine survives. The ascetic monk (shugenja) named Sagamibo Doryo is revered in one part of the temple grounds. It is said that he flew to Emyo Zenji's side when the temple was being built and completed the project in only one year.
Begging is a chance to do good.
Um clima de dignidade silenciosa impregna o salão Zen.
Após a morte de EmyoZenji, prometendo proteger Daiyuzan e salvar a todos, ele desapareceu nas montanhas. Desde então, como o grande Bodhisattva Doryo, ele tem sido um objeto de veneração. Vários pares de takageta (tamancos de madeira com grandes suportes) vermelhos doados em respeito a Doryo estão em exposição no templo. Ademais, as flores de ameixa datadas até de 6 séculos e 10000 hortênsias saúdam os peregrinos na estação.
A folhagem brilhante de outono acalma as mentes dos peregrinos.
