Myōen-ji, Buddhist temple in Sumida-ku, Japan.
The temple features traditional Japanese wooden architecture with curved tiled roofs, stone lanterns, and meditation gardens within its grounds in Tokyo.
Established during the Edo period, Myōen-ji became the central location for Kenshōkai organization in 1958 following its relocation from Myokoji Temple.
The temple maintains daily Buddhist ceremonies and provides meditation spaces for practitioners of the Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist traditions.
Located near major subway stations in Sumida-ku, the temple welcomes visitors without entrance fees and offers guided tours of its premises.
The temple holds a special transcription of the Dai Gohonzon from 1942, which marked a significant moment in Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist propagation.
