In particular, Abe Seimei learned about astronomy and the calendar here when he was a child, so it is a place with deep ties to the stars. Yamada-dera Ruins is a large temple built at the request of Mr. Sogakura Yamada Ishikawamaro, who was active in the Taika Reforms (Itsumi Incident). It is said to have been such a magnificent temple that Fujiwara no Michinaga visited during the Heian period and praised its majesty.
