Kansenji, Buddhist temple in Suginami, Japan.
The temple features traditional Japanese architecture with wooden structures, stone lanterns, and a garden containing multiple Buddhist statues and ornamental plants.
Founded in 1597 by Zen master Tessou Yusaku, the temple relocated to its current location in 1645 under the patronage of the Imagawa family.
The temple maintains Soto Zen Buddhist practices, offering meditation sessions and religious ceremonies throughout the year to local residents and visitors.
Located near public transportation options in Suginami ward, the temple grounds remain open daily from sunrise to sunset with free admission.
The temple houses the relocated tomb of Imagawa Ujizane, a notable 16th-century daimyo who composed numerous classical Japanese poems.
