Sekiganji, Buddhist temple in Toyohashi, Japan.

The stone-built temple features traditional Japanese architecture with a mountain gate, main hall, and dedicated Aizen-do prayer space within its grounds.

Founded in 762 during the Nara period at Emperor Seibu's request, Sekiganji Temple underwent reconstruction after a devastating fire in 1913.

The temple houses a collection of Buddhist statues, including the Aizen Myoo seated statue containing 104 smaller figures within its crown.

Located at Aichi-ken Toyohashi-shi Tame-cho Akaiwayama, the temple provides free parking and maintains regular opening hours for visitors.

Behind the temple grounds, a pathway leads to the Akaiwa Observatory at 111.4 meters elevation, offering views across Toyohashi City.
