清光院

The Seiko-in temple maintains traditional Buddhist architectural elements with its wooden structures and curved roofs within the urban setting of Tokyo.

The temple reflects the architectural transformations of Buddhist structures that occurred during the Momoyama period of the late 16th century in Japan.

The temple stands as an example of Japanese religious architecture where Buddhist and Shinto design elements merge into a single cohesive structure.

Visitors can access the temple grounds to observe religious ceremonies, architectural features, and participate in Buddhist rituals throughout the year.

The suffix -in in the temple name Seiko-in indicates its classification as a minor temple within the Buddhist architectural hierarchy of Japan.
