Fudaraku-ji, Buddhist temple in Kamakura, Japan.
The temple structure follows Japanese architectural principles with multiple wooden buildings and gardens positioned along the elevated grounds of Kamakura.
Monk Mongaku and Shogun Minamoto no Yoritomo established Fudaraku-ji in 1181, during the early formation period of the Kamakura military government.
The temple stands as one of the stations in the Kamakura Thirty-Three Kannon Pilgrimage route, where devotees seek spiritual enlightenment.
Visitors can reach the temple grounds by taking a local bus from Kamakura Station to the nearby stop, followed by a five-minute walk uphill.
The temple maintains a collection of artifacts related to the Fudaraku Tokai ritual, where monks embarked on sea journeys in small boats.
