Tenshin-ji, Buddhist temple in Minato-ku, Japan
The temple complex features an entrance with garden elements incorporating figures from Alice in Wonderland, including sculptures of the King and Queen of Hearts.
Founded in 1661, Tenshin-ji Temple holds a significant connection to early American-Japanese relations as the site of important diplomatic activities in the 19th century.
The temple grounds contain the burial site of Fukuzawa Yukichi, founder of Keio University, and serve as a center for Rinzai Zen Buddhist practices and meditation.
Located at Minami-Azabu 3-chome 1-15, the temple provides straightforward access from multiple stations within the Azabu and Hiroo districts of Tokyo.
A National Natural Monument ginkgo tree measuring 10 meters in circumference and 20 meters in height grows within the temple grounds.
