- quote -
Constructed in 1254, Enseiji Temple has a torii gate at its entrance — despite being a temple and not a shrine — and this stone torii is a city-designated Tangible Cultural Property.
The temple grounds contain the Konpira-sha Hall (a Municipal Tangible Cultural Property) with its statues of the 12 zodiac signs.
It is an important location, being a rare example of the syncretism between Buddhism and Shinto.
The precincts also contain the rocking -horse (sacred horse) that Shinsaku Takasugi and Hirobumi Ito played with in their youth.

The temple was built on request of 大内氏 the Ouchi clan of Hagi as their clan temple.
After the extinction of the Ouchi clan, in 1604, 毛利輝元 Mori Terumoto became regent of the region.
He relocated the temple to 塩屋町 Shioya district (now there is 多越神社 the Shrine Taetsu Jinja.
