The temple's belltower was rebuilt in [[1844]]. The sutra storehouse (''kyôzô''), most recently rebuilt in [[1859]]-[[1860]], houses among other treasures a complete Korean copy of the [[Tripitaka]]. The grounds also include a memorial mound where the hair of [[Emperor Go-Mizunoo]] was buried after he took the tonsure. The tower that once stood in connection with this mound burned down in [[1788]], but the burial mound, and a stone marker identifying it, remain.

A bathhouse on the grounds, known as Senmyô, is believed to have been built around [[1400]]; the current structure dates to a rebuilding in [[1596]]. The bathhouse takes its name from a reference to a [[sutra]] which features a story of 16 [[bodhisattvas]] bathing together; the word ''senmyô'' references specifically the words spoken by one of the figures in the story at the moment he reaches enlightenment. The bathhouse appears in at least one famous ''[[emaki]]'' (scroll painting), the ''Daitô gozan shodô-zu'' (大唐五山諸堂図, Images of Various Halls of the Great Five Chinese [read: Zen] Temples).
