Kōjaku-in

Kojaku-in sits within a residential district of Showa-ku, featuring traditional Japanese architecture with pagodas and ceremonial halls surrounded by gardens.

The temple established its presence during the Edo period and became a center for the production of Kawana ware, contributing to local craft traditions.

The temple grounds include designated spaces for traditional tea ceremonies, meditation sessions, and religious practices that maintain Buddhist traditions.

Visitors can reach the temple through nearby subway lines, with the grounds remaining open for both individual reflection and scheduled community gatherings.

The temple grounds preserve two original trees planted by the 11th priest, who initiated a forest cultivation project that transformed the landscape.
