In 18, Brahman Sojo founded the mountain in Sagae City, Yamagata Prefecture, about 746 years ago.It is a three-storied pagoda built in the precincts of Zuihozan Jionji, the largest temple in the Tohoku region.I heard that the first tower was destroyed by fire and was rebuilt in 1300 by a local master carpenter (Bungoro Fukawa).
