Sengakuji - The Tale of 47 Samurai

Today, we went to the temple of the 47 samurai. I saw a lot of neat stuff like the graves of the samurai. There were short movies of the story of the samurai. The museum had things like the sword of a samurai and the armor of a samurai.

Also, there was a big scroll of the castle and it also showed heaven where the gods were. There were helments of the samurai. One of them was peach-shaped which was banged up a bit. The grave stones were a little creepy because I was around dead people. The temple was very interesting but a statue needed to be repaired so that it was in good condition. It was a big of a downside but I was still happy. The temple was a great place to visit and I took a lot of time to take pictures at the temple.
