妙福寺

Myofukuji Temple is a Buddhist place of worship in Machida characterized by traditional Japanese architecture and carefully designed garden spaces. The grounds feature stone pathways winding through natural vegetation and landscaped areas.

The temple has deep roots in Nichiren Buddhism and has been maintained through generations of local religious practice and devotion. Its development is closely connected to the spiritual history of the surrounding region.

The temple serves as a place where followers observe Buddhist rituals and maintain their spiritual practices in a shared space. Visitors can observe these customs during their time here.

The temple welcomes visitors and is easily accessible by public transportation from central Machida. It is helpful to consider visiting during daylight hours when access to the grounds is most convenient.
