Senryuji Temple, Buddhist temple in Motoizumi, Japan
Senryuji Temple is a Buddhist place of worship located in the Tokyo area with multiple structures spread across its grounds. The complex includes a main hall, a Kaizando hall, and two distinct gates that together organize the space for religious activities.
The main hall was built in the early 1700s and forms the heart of the complex. Later in the 1800s, additional buildings such as the Kaizando hall and entrance gates were added to expand the site.
The temple serves as a gathering place for people seeking spiritual practice and contemplation in their daily lives. Visitors of different ages come to the grounds to participate in personal rituals and find moments of inner focus.
The temple is located in Motoizumi in Komae, Tokyo, and is accessible by public transportation. Visitors should know that the site does not offer parking, so using public transport is the better option.
The Shoromon gate stands out with its unusual four-pillar design instead of the typical two pillars. It sits near Benzaiten Pond, which according to records produced water during a drought period.
