松應寺, Buddhist temple in Okazaki, Japan.

The temple complex features a wooden arcade pathway extending 40 meters, connecting to the renovated Miyakoya shopping area.

Tokugawa Ieyasu established Shoji Temple in 1560 to honor his father Matsudaira Hirotada, who was killed by retainers in 1549.

The temple serves as the fifth station of the Mikawa Thirty-Three Kannon Pilgrimage and holds regular Buddhist ceremonies.

Monthly market events occur every third Saturday at 10:00, featuring local products and community gatherings.

The temple grounds contain a white wisteria that blooms after the Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms have fallen.
