Yousenji Temple, Yuza Town [Lush green moss temple in the water village]

Yousenji is a historic Soto sect temple located in Yuza Town, Yamagata Prefecture. Located at the foot of Mt. Chokai, it is known as an ancient temple surrounded by rich nature. Yousenji is one of the important temples of the Soto sect, and is positioned as the direct subsidiary temple of the main temple, Sojiji. It is a venerable temple with a history of about 600 years, founded by the priest Minamoto.
Yuza Town is an area so rich in water that it has been selected as one of the ``Top 100 Water Villages''. The clear streams and spring water from Mt. Chokai have become a part of daily life, and the city is said to be a town where all things water come together. Due to the location, Yousenji Temple stands beautifully surrounded by lush greenery and moss.

All that moss makes the place so mysterious yet alluring at the same time.

Thank you for watching the video.
Yes, I also feel that the moss makes this temple very mysterious. In addition, the humid nature of the area, which allowed this beautiful moss to grow, and the quiet lifestyle of the local people make this area even more attractive.

素晴らしい映像美！　紹介ビデオで金とれる腕前ですね。
山形には何度も、酒田にも三回ほど訪れていますが、此処は全く知りませんでした。
加茂水族館と縄文の女神が未見ですので、其れを見に行く際に検討します。有難う ♪
