Serene. Empowering. Beautiful. My limited vocabulary cannot explain the experience of visiting this shrine on an empty weekday afternoon. The entrance is obviously grand, and inviting in its own special way. The big Buddha statue does not disappoint. The forest and paths around the temple are absolutely worth the dérive - you easily lose time, especially if your phone’s switched off because you don’t plan day trips well (: Do walk around the estate and find labelled paths around the monastery area, ritualistic spaces, the eating buddhas, the woods, and the running track.

Beautiful and peaceful place in Yagoto, must visit when you go to Nagoya city. It’s nearly Yagoto station, just take a few minutes walking to there. The temple have a park save the forest inside the city so quite and fresh 🌸❤️

A picturesque and tranquil place in the hustle and bustle of Yagoto. You can reach the temple within a few minutes walk from Yagoto Station. Explore the cafe, main temple and the temple grounds any season.

Very great Temple complex. It was bigger than I thought. There is also a path you can walk. You do have to be carefull when it rains since the path can be slippery. Nevertheless I would recommend making a quick viqit. It's free and very beautiful

It's a nice temple in Yagoto. Very calm and peaceful place. The temple garden is very big and it's a great place to spend some time. There is also an escalator to go uphill. There are some souvenir shops as well. It's very close to the Yagoto station. When you exit from exit 1 of subway, it's only a 100 m walk.
