Injū-ji

Injū-ji is a Buddhist temple set in Ichibachō with a main worship building and connected structures for teaching and prayer. The site includes various areas designed for different aspects of temple life and religious practice.

The temple was established in 1558 during a period when many Buddhist temples were built across Japan. It represents the religious growth that shaped the region during that era.

The temple serves as a gathering place where visitors come to pray and participate in Buddhist rituals held throughout the year. Local residents use the grounds for meditation and personal spiritual practice.

The grounds are generally open during daylight hours for exploration and quiet observation. Comfortable shoes are recommended as you will walk through various temple areas and outdoor spaces.

The temple bell rings 108 times on New Year's Eve, following a Buddhist practice believed to cleanse worldly desires through sound. This special ceremony draws visitors who want to witness this annual tradition.
