Myokoji Temple

Myokoji Temple is a Buddhist temple in Zhejiang with traditional Chinese architecture including a main hall, bell tower, and multiple courtyards enclosed by stone walls. The buildings follow classic layout patterns with carefully designed passageways and entrances that guide visitors through distinct zones.

The temple was founded in its original form and preserves the building style of Buddhist temples in eastern China. Its structure shows the architectural approach of that period and has maintained its essential form over time.

The temple serves as an active center where Buddhist practices happen daily and visitors can observe monks at work. Local devotees gather in the halls to meditate and participate in ceremonies that shape the rhythm of the place.

The temple is open daily from sunrise to sunset with designated prayer and meditation areas in the main hall. Visitors should wear respectful clothing and keep quiet to avoid interrupting ongoing practices.

The temple houses a collection of ancient Buddhist manuscripts written on palm leaves and kept in temperature-controlled rooms. These carefully preserved texts offer rare glimpses into past religious traditions and practices.
