Myokensha is a shrine within the grounds of Honshoji Temple where the garden of the great swordsman Miyamoto Musashi remains. Due to the Separation of Shinto and Buddhism, the temple and the shrine are now separate entities, but Honshoji Temple info states information about Myoken-sha Shrine, so it seems that the relationship is still deep, therefore Myokensha is still enshrined in Honshoji Temple. At Myokensha, there remains a small dry landscape garden that is characterized by trimmed azaleas, famous spot for azaleas in Akashi.
