Tachikisanji, Buddhist temple in Ōtsu, Japan.

Tachikisanji Temple stands near the Seta River, which flows from Lake Biwa toward Kyoto and Osaka, surrounded by natural gardens and traditional architecture.

The temple operates as a branch location of the Onjo-ji Temple complex, reflecting centuries of Buddhist practice and regional religious development in the Shiga Prefecture.

The temple maintains strong connections with the Kannon Bodhisattva traditions, influencing the religious ceremonies and practices conducted within its grounds throughout the year.

Visitors can reach the temple grounds through multiple public transportation options from both Kyoto and central Ōtsu, with regular bus services available.

The temple's position near Mount Hiei creates a natural sanctuary where Buddhist traditions merge with the seasonal changes of the surrounding landscape.
