Ikō-in, Buddhist temple in Mitaka, Japan.
Ikō-in stands among traditional Japanese gardens, featuring two muscular nio guards at its entrance and a prominent Fudo-myo statue with a bronze blade.
The temple, established in 1672, represents the Jōdo Shinshū Buddhist sect and maintains connections to the historical Ikkō-ikki movement of peasants and priests.
The temple grounds incorporate elements of Japanese Buddhist architecture and serve as a center for religious practices, meditation, and community gatherings.
Located within a 20-minute walk from Mitaka Station, the temple welcomes visitors who wish to explore its grounds or participate in Buddhist ceremonies.
The temple houses a distinctive Fudo-myo statue encircled by bronze-colored flames, creating a striking visual centerpiece within the main hall.
