Yakushi Fountain Garden has been restored to its original Edo Period glory; it is located located just off the Nakasendo Road. Shimizu Yakushi, who used to reside in this area, is known as one of the Edo landmarks, and was opened as a "Yakushi-no-sen". In the quiet garden there is a spring, although it is much better known for its tiny pond garden created below a slop with the slope providing a backdrop of undulating terrain. It is officially known as Yakushi no Izumi. It was originally the site of Daizen-ji Temple, founded in the 15th century and later absorbed into neighborhing Sosen-ji.
