Kōkyūzan Myōhō-ji, Buddhist temple in Fuji, Japan.

The temple stands near the forested foothills of Mount Fuji, with traditional Japanese architecture and multiple prayer halls for religious ceremonies and meditation.

Founded approximately 750 years ago, this temple maintains its position as a center of Nichiren Shū Buddhism, attracting pilgrims through generations.

The temple offers traditional experiences including morning prayers, Buddhist shojin ryori cuisine, and participation in religious ceremonies throughout the year.

Visitors can access the temple via train from Tokyo to Kofu Station, then switch to JR Minobu Line before taking a local taxi to reach the grounds.

The temple maintains Kakurinbo, a 15th-century lodging facility where guests can practice kintsugi, calligraphy, and participate in tea ceremonies.
