This beautiful temple was established in 1321 as the head of the S艒t艒 school of Zen but now functions as a branch temple. The site's buildings were damaged by the 2007 Noto earthquake and remain under fastidious reconstruction. S艒ji-ji Soin welcomes visitors to experience one hour of zazen (seated meditation; 楼300; 9am to 3pm), serves 蝉丑艒箩颈苍-谤测艒谤颈 (Buddhist vegetarian cuisine; 楼2500 to 楼3500) and can accommodate visitors (with two meals 楼6500; single women prohibited). Reserve at least two days ahead.
The temple's renovations are set to be completed in 2021.
