Butsugan-ji, Buddhist temple in Minami-ku, Japan.
The Great Nirvana Temple Hall of Butsugan-ji contains a 45-meter-long statue of Buddha, positioned on the roof of the main building.
The temple incorporates architectural elements that reflect the evolution of Buddhist temple design since Buddhism arrived in Japan during the 6th century.
Butsugan-ji holds ceremonies throughout the year, including the Hanamatsuri flower festival in May to mark the birth of Buddha.
Located one hour from New Chitose Airport, the temple opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and offers prayer services and omamori charms.
The temple features a garden with a pond and waterfall that generates negative ions, contributing to the purification of the surrounding air.
