【Kyodo (Turning Library)】
 This sutra hall was built in 1810 by Hanbei Ishida, a sculptor from Matsuzaki Town, and the ringzo consists of six sides, with a total of 60 books in drawers. Each side is marked with symbols classified into the 12 zodiac signs.
 This style of rotation originated in China and was introduced to Japan along with Zen Buddhism. In particular, it is said that if you rotate this sutra hall once, it will have the same merit as reading and reciting all the sutras.
