Nincho-ji, Buddhist temple in Ibaraki, Japan

The temple complex consists of several buildings including a main hall, bell tower, and multipurpose hall surrounded by traditional gardens.

The temple shifted from the Shingon sect to the Pure Land school in 1281 under the guidance of Ryochu Shonin during missionary work.

The temple maintains Pure Land Buddhist practices following the teachings of Honen, emphasizing accessibility of Buddhism through simple prayers to Amida Buddha.

Visitors can enter the temple grounds without charge, while special seasonal viewings in spring and fall require entrance fees of 500 and 800 yen.

Modern author Tanizaki Junichirō selected this temple as his final resting place, connecting literature with spiritual heritage.
