Rurikoji (瑠璃光寺), Japan’s national treasure, is a Buddhist temple in Yamaguchi City, best known for its five-storied pagoda. Built in 1442, the Rurikoji’s pagoda is ranked among Japan's three greatest pagodas. The other two pagodas which share this honor are of the Horyuji Temple near Nara and Daigoji Temple in Kyoto.
Kozan Park (香山公園) is the common name for the temple grounds of Rurikoji. Kozan Park also houses the main hall, a temple storehouse, a bell tower and a small but thorough museum. The museum displays pictures and miniature models of the fifty-plus five-storied pagodas in Japan. Though limited in its English explanations, the museum provides interesting information about the pagodas such as their differences in design.
Kozan Park also houses the burial site of members of the Mori Clan, a powerful clan who ruled this region during the Edo Period (1603-1867). The Ugisubari Stone Pavement leads visitors to the burial grounds. The pavements produces an echoed sound when one clap one’s hands or stomps ones feet. The echoed sound resembles the noise made by a Japanese Bush Warbler (uguisu) which is how the pavement received its name.
Also in the park stands Chinryutei, a famous tea house in history. It was here Saigo Takamori and others pretended to practice the tea ceremony, while in reality the plotted the successful overthrow of the Edo Shogunate. This led to the Meiji Restoration and the end of Japan's feudal age in 1868. Admission into Chinryutei is free and visitors can view its simple tatami mat rooms on the second floor. On the first floor are some displays in Japanese about the key members of the Meiji Revolution.
