鶏足寺, Buddhist temple in Nagahama, Japan
Keisoku-ji Temple stands at an elevation of 923 meters on Mount Koko, surrounded by approximately 200 maple trees along its pathways.
Founded in 735 by Gyoki and reconstructed in 799 by Saicho, the temple complex burned down in 1933 and now functions as a historical site.
The temple houses significant Buddhist statues from the Heian period, including wooden sculptures of the Eleven-Faced Kannon and Yakushi Nyorai.
Visitors can reach the temple ruins by taking a bus from JR Kinomoto Station to Furuhashi stop, followed by a 15-minute walk.
The autumn maple leaves create a red canopy from mid to late November, making it a principal destination for leaf viewing in Shiga Prefecture.
