Tamon-in, Buddhist temple in Tokorozawa, Japan
The temple complex features 300 peony plants with 23 varieties, arranged in a three-dimensional mandala pattern across the temple grounds.
The temple was established in 1696 during the development of Santomi-Shinden by Yanagisawa Yoshiyasu, the feudal lord of Kawagoe Domain.
During the annual Tiger Festival on May 1, visitors participate in prayer ceremonies and observe traditional performances with local music groups.
The temple reaches peak visitation between late April and early May when peonies bloom, making it a central attraction in the Nakatomi district.
The temple houses a small golden statue of Bishamonten, measuring 4 centimeters, which opens for public viewing once every 12 years.
