Sōfuku-ji Temple.  This temple was a bit unkempt though there were people tidying it while we visited. 

Some of these temples and places in temples are used for specific kinds of prayers.  Sayaka says that this prayer board is about a husband who cheats, placed by a wife who is asking for something bad to happen to him.

There were loads of similar prayer boards here -- you can make out a few others in this picture.

Curiously, the large collection of these boards is on the otherwise blank back side of this building.
