Takidan-ji

Takidan-ji temple sits within traditional gardens featuring stone lanterns, ponds, and native trees like Japanese cedars and mountain pines.

Founded in 1377 during the Muromachi period, the temple maintains its original structures and became an Important Cultural Property of Japan through centuries.

The temple functions as a significant stop along two Buddhist pilgrimage routes: the Hokuriku Kannon and the Hokuriku Hakujyu Kannon paths.

Visitors can access the temple daily between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM from March to October, with an entrance fee of 500 yen for adults.

The temple garden utilizes natural hillside terrain to create a distinctive four-sided design where each direction serves as a primary viewing point.
