Gyokuhō-ji, Buddhist temple in Minato-ku, Japan.

The Gyokuhō-ji temple features traditional Japanese architectural elements with intricate wooden structures, meditation halls, and ceremonial spaces spread across its grounds.

Founded in 1599 during the early Edo period, this temple remains at its original location and continues its religious functions through multiple centuries of Japanese history.

Throughout the year, Buddhist ceremonies and rituals take place at the temple, where monks conduct traditional practices and guide visitors in meditation techniques.

The temple welcomes visitors without entrance fees and stands within walking distance of Onarimon Station, Shiba Park Station, and Daimon Station in Tokyo.

This temple maintains its spiritual purpose while being surrounded by Tokyo's modern buildings, creating a physical intersection between traditional practices and contemporary life.
