Chōkoku-ji, Buddhist temple in Taitō-ku, Japan
The temple features a prominent statue of Washimyoken Bodhisattva holding a sword, surrounded by a halo depicting the seven stars of Ursa Major constellation.
Established in 1630, Chōkoku-ji Temple became a center for Nichiren Buddhism, attracting thousands of visitors during the inauguration of its primary statue.
The temple hosts the annual Tori-no-Ichi market every November, where participants purchase kumade rakes as traditional symbols for gathering good fortune.
Located at 3-19-6 Senzoku, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with convenient access from Iriya and Minowa stations.
The Iki-iki Ajisai Festival in June presents an extensive collection of hydrangea varieties from different regions across Japan.
