Hosokawa Sansai built this temple, Honjoji, to enshrine the spirit of Kiyomasako. This festival was a great occasion that gathered the Yatsushiro community together until it was destroyed in WWII. But local volunteers and believers worked together to restore the buildings afterwards. This temple specializes in Houyou Buddhist memorial services.
