Behind the Obaku Zen temple Toko-ji in Hagi, Yamaguchi, lies the large graveyard/cemetery housing the tombs of the Mori lords and their wives.
The 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 11th lords are buried here, the others are buried at Daisho-in temple on the other side of the town.
The most obvious feature are the lines and lines of stone lanterns donated by retainers of the lords.
Surrounded by woods, and wearing a mantle of moss, the graveyard is a very peaceful and still place.
