罢艒办别颈-箩颈

Kamakura


Across the railway tracks from Engaku-ji, 罢艒办别颈-箩颈 is famed as having served as a women's refuge. A woman could be officially recognised as divorced after three years as a nun in the temple precincts. Today, there are no nuns; the grave of the last abbess can be found in the cemetery, shrouded by cypress trees.
