It’s around 15-20 min walk from the JR station. The area is quite spacious with building for scriptures and various purposes. The main temple closed at four and we just missed it !

For over fourteen centuries, Shi-Tennoji Buddhist Temple has stood as a testament to Osaka's rich cultural and religious heritage. Built in 593 AD, this magnificent temple complex embraces visitors with its serene ambiance and captivating architectural beauty. Upon entering the temple grounds, one is immediately greeted by the awe-inspiring sight of the five-story pagoda, an iconic symbol of Japanese Buddhism. The pagoda reaches towards the sky, its elegant structure adorned with intricate carvings and vibrant colors that mesmerize even the most jaded of travelers. As you ascend the steps to each floor, the fragrant aroma of incense and the soft sound of chanting envelop you in a tranquil and introspective atmosphere.

This temple and its grounds are beautifully built and immaculately kept, whilst not being over the top. Unfortunately, whilst it's quite peaceful and quiet, there's nowhere really to sit in the temple itself to meditate or otherwise enjoy the temple. Still, you can appreciate the simple yet stunning temple design and details, walk around the paths and take photos, and pray.
