妙興寺, Buddhist temple in Wakaba-ku, Japan

The Myokoji Temple features traditional Buddhist architecture with wooden buildings, meditation halls, and stone lanterns spread across its grounds.

The temple traces its origins to 1275 when Soya Shirozaemon Naohide, a feudal lord from Ichikawa, established a place for Lotus Sutra practice.

Myokoji Temple maintains regular Buddhist ceremonies and serves as a center for religious education in the Nichiren Buddhist tradition.

The temple opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with access available by bus from JR Chiba Station or taxi from Hondaeki Station.

The temple houses a reconstructed Kosodo Hall, which originally contained scriptures donated by the Matsudaira clan in 1682.
