摩訶耶寺, Buddhist temple in Hamamatsu, Japan.

Kamoe Temple features a traditional entrance gate, leading to a pond and carefully arranged gardens with stone arrangements throughout the grounds.

Founded in 726 during the Nara period, the temple underwent reconstruction in 1616 under Tokugawa Ieyasu following destruction by fire in 1608.

The temple houses the Jizo Bodhisattva statue and Dobutsu Kannon, representing protection for children and animals in Buddhist traditions.

Located at 421 Mikkabi-cho, the temple opens daily from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, with admission fees ranging from free for children to 400 yen for adults.

The temple grounds contain one of Shizuoka Prefecture's oldest gardens, dating back to the late Heian and early Kamakura periods.
