本立寺, Buddhist temple in Hachioji, Japan

The Honryuji temple stands within a landscaped garden featuring traditional Japanese architectural elements, including wooden structures and curved roofs.

The temple maintains its original seventh-century architectural design, reflecting the religious practices and construction methods of medieval Japanese Buddhism.

Visitors participate in Buddhist ceremonies throughout the year, including the New Year's Eve bell ringing ritual marking 108 worldly desires.

The temple opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with guided tours available in Japanese, while educational programs about Buddhism occur on weekends.

The temple garden contains multiple meditation areas where monks practice daily rituals among carefully positioned stones and native plants.
