大藏寺

Daizoji is a Buddhist temple located in the mountainous region of Uda with traditional Japanese architecture featuring wooden structures and curved tile roofs. The compound includes several buildings arranged around central courtyards connected by pathways through the wooded grounds.

The temple was established during the spread of Buddhism across the Kansai region, contributing to the growth of religious practice in rural areas. Over centuries, it has undergone renovations while maintaining its fundamental structure and spiritual purpose.

The temple serves as a center for Buddhist practice and local community gatherings throughout the year. Visitors can observe how the space functions as a place where people come to pray and participate in seasonal celebrations.

The temple is accessible by local transportation or car from Uda city center, with parking available on the grounds. Wear sturdy shoes as the pathways between buildings are uneven and can become slippery when wet or during rainy seasons.

The temple has dedicated meditation spaces where monks perform daily practice using traditional Buddhist methods passed down through generations. Many visitors miss the fact that these spaces show visible activity during specific times of day when practice sessions are underway.
