Honryū-ji, Buddhist temple in Minami-Ikebukuro, Japan
Honryū-ji temple stands in the Minami-Ikebukuro district, featuring traditional Buddhist architecture with stone lanterns lining the paths and a main hall for worship.
Founded in 1618, the temple has endured through centuries of Tokyo's transformations, including reconstruction after the Great Kanto Earthquake and World War II.
