In the compound is a stone memorial in honor of the Yamabushi priest 普寛 Fukan.
贈大教普寛霊尊供養塔
Fukan was born in 1731 in Chichibu, Otaki village. He held the high rank of 阿闍梨 Ajari in the Shugendo hierarchy. He walked around all of Japan and climbed many high mountains, some for the first time.
In 1792 he climbed Kiso 御嶽山 Mount Ontakesan.
"In 1798 the Edo shugenja 本明院 普寛 Honmyōin Fukan opened a route for ascent from Ōdaki and carried out extensive propagation of the cult in Edo and northern Kantō. As a result, a great many confraternities were formed. After his death his followers continued to expand Fukan-lineage confraternities all over Kantō. In addition, sacred mountains connected with the Ontake cult, such as 越後八海山 Hakkai, Hotaka and Ryōgami, developed locally over an area from northern Kantō to Niigata."

- 望月山 Bogetsuzan 正福院 Shofuku-In 般若寺 Hannya-Ji
台東区元浅草4-7-11 / Taitō ward, Motoasakusa, 4 Chome−７−１１
Shingon Sect : 智山派
This temple was founded in 1611 by 源秀 Genshu. Genshu died in 1637.
The founding donor was 広寿院其融到行居士 (望月貞久 Mochizuki Sadahisa). Mochizuki had a dream, that he would get a statue of Kannon (carved by Kobo Daishi) from Kyoto Fushimi Inari if he would prepare a suitable shrine (temple) for it in the Kanto Region. A small sanctuary under a willow tree was the beginning, leading to the name "Yanagi Inari", Inari below the Willow Tree.
The temple is sometimes called 柳稲荷大明神 Yanagi Inari Daimyojin.
It shows the strong relation between Buddhist and Shinto deities in the Edo period.
The main statue is 大日如来 Dainichi Nyorai.
The temple was first located near Nihonbashi, and moved to its present location in 1645. At the left of the gate is a triangular stone with the name inscription.
The temple suffered in the fires of World War II and stone statues of Shaka Nyorai and Jizo Bosatsu are now standing in the compound, all blackened by the fires of 1945.
