Fukushō-ji, Buddhist temple in Kamigyō-ku, Japan
The wooden structures of Fukushō-ji temple stand within landscaped grounds, featuring traditional Japanese architectural elements and gardens in the Zen style.
Founded in 1394 by Shimazu Motohisa, the temple underwent demolition in 1869 during the haibutsu kishaku movement, which sought to eliminate Buddhist structures.
The temple functions as a center for Zen Buddhist practices, offering meditation sessions and teachings that connect visitors with traditional Japanese spirituality.
Located at 323-1 Shichibancho Demizudori Sembon Nishi Iru, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 09:00 to 16:30 without an entrance fee.
The site where Fukushō-ji once stood now houses the Kagoshima Gyokuryu Junior and Senior High School, marking a transformation in land use.
