SENJUJIHeadTempleoftheShinshuTakadaSchool Mausoleum Hall and Karamon Gate

On the west side of Nyorai-do Hall, across a small stone bridge and passing through a moat, is the mausoleum of Shinran, the founder of Shinshu Buddhism. From the south, there is a Karamon gate, a hall of worship, and a stone bridge, followed by the tomb of Shinran Shonin, and surrounding it are the tombs of successive chief priests of Senshuji Temple.
The Karamon gate in front of the building was built in 1861, with a roof made of cypress bark, and every corner of the gate, between the columns, and the door is filled with carvings, making it look like a beautiful work of art. The transparent walls on the left and right sides were also built at the same time, and around the waist are carvings of flowers such as daffodils, lotuses, and dandelions.
The hall of worship is believed to have been built in 1858, based on the inscriptions on the roof tiles, and has a staggered gable on four sides of the roof, and a kara gable on the front eave. The interior floor is laid with tiles with diagonal joints, so-called shihan-shiki.
Shinran's tomb was built in 1671 by burying five of the saint's bones that had been handed down at Senshuji Temple.
