大福寺

The temple complex features multiple buildings, including the main hall, Daishi-do, and Goma-do, surrounded by traditional Japanese gardens with stone paths.

Founded in 875 by Master Kyotai, the temple relocated to its current location in Misakubo, Hamamatsu in 1207, changing its name from Hankyoji to Daifukuji.

The temple houses numerous Buddhist statues and treasures, including nationally designated Important Cultural Properties, within its dedicated museum collection.

The temple grounds contain designated photography areas, wheelchair-accessible paths, and maintain regular visiting hours with additional opening times during religious ceremonies.

The temple produces Daifukuji Natto, a special fermented soybean product made using a strain of bacteria preserved since the Muromachi period.
