天嶽院, Buddhist temple in Fujisawa, Japan.

The Tengaku-in temple exhibits traditional Japanese architecture with its wooden halls, gates, and a garden containing a pond with koi carp.

The temple has undergone several reconstructions due to fires throughout its history, with the current main hall dating back to 1937.

The complex features the Chujaku-mon gate from 1859, displaying crests that indicate connections to both the Imperial family and Tokugawa family.

Visitors can access the temple grounds through the So-mon gate, which leads to the Iroha-zaka slope with its 48 steps ascending to the main buildings.

A 700-year-old ginkgo tree stands at the summit of the Iroha-zaka slope, marking the entrance to the temple's principal structures.
