The famous Japanese writer Yukio Mishima's novel of the same name and Tsutomu Minakami's "Sunset House in Wu Fan Town" are all adapted from this incident.

The relic hall we see today was rebuilt and built as it was in the 30th year of Showa (1955). In the sixty-second year of Showa (1987), the gold foil decoration on the outer wall of the whole hall was completely new and became the present state.
