久昌寺, Former Buddhist temple in Konan, Japan

The temple grounds contain several traditional Japanese structures situated in the eastern region of Konan, near Mount Iwane in Aichi Prefecture.

Established in 1384, this Buddhist temple served as an important religious center during the late Muromachi period in central Japan.

The temple complex maintains traditional Buddhist architectural elements, including meditation spaces and ceremonial halls that reflect medieval Japanese design principles.

Visitors can reach the temple grounds by taking a local bus from JR Kosei Station to Iwane Station, followed by a 10-minute walk.

The temple's position on the slope of Mount Iwane provides natural elevation changes that were integrated into the original architectural layout.
