The walls of both the right and left side of Chokushi-mon gate (the gate for the Imperial Envoys), which is the entrance, are tsukiji walls (walls made with mud) with 5 horizontal lines, showing the high formality of the temple as a monzeki temple.
入口である勅使門の左右の塀は5本の水平の筋が入った築地塀で、門跡寺院としての格式の高さを表している。
