Jōzai-ji, Buddhist temple in Minami-Ikebukuro, Japan.
The temple building features traditional Japanese Buddhist architecture with wooden beams, curved roofs, and meticulously maintained prayer halls.
Nittatsu Shonin established Jōzai-ji in 1605, creating a foundation for Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism practice in the Minami-Ikebukuro district.
The temple serves as a center for Buddhist ceremonies, religious education, and meditation practices for the local Japanese community.
Visitors can reach Jōzai-ji by taking a 10-minute walk east from Ikebukuro Station, following the signs through residential streets.
The temple contains artifacts and documents from Nittatsu Shonin's period as chief priest before his role as the 66th High Priest of Taisekiji.
