弥勒寺, Buddhist temple in Ryogoku, Sumida, Japan

Mirokuji Temple occupies a traditional building complex with a main prayer hall and adjacent meditation spaces in eastern Tokyo's Sumida ward.

The temple originated as a branch of Kyoto's Daigoji Sanbouin in 1610, initially established in Koishikawa Takajo-cho before relocating to its current location in 1689.

The temple maintains connections with Negoro-ji Temple and preserves Buddhist traditions through regular ceremonies and religious practices in the Sumida district.

Visitors can reach the temple through an 8-minute walk from Kikukawa Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line, following clear street signs through residential areas.

The temple grounds contain several stone monuments and religious artifacts that reflect the spiritual heritage of the Edo period in Tokyo.
