Nyoi-ji, Buddhist temple in Gojō, Japan

The temple grounds contain traditional Japanese architectural elements with multiple buildings connected by stone pathways and surrounded by native vegetation.

Established in 1954, Nyoi-ji emerged during Japan's post-war period as part of a broader movement to maintain Buddhist traditions in modern times.

The temple serves as a center for Tendai Buddhist practices, offering meditation sessions and religious ceremonies that connect local residents with traditional spirituality.

Visitors can participate in weekly meditation sessions followed by community gatherings, with designated spaces for prayer and contemplation throughout the grounds.

The temple maintains a program where Buddhist priests receive training and preparation before establishing new religious centers in other locations.
