Kuhonji, Buddhist temple in Taiwa, Japan

The temple buildings stand against the mountain backdrop, with a traditional gate leading to a prayer hall and residential quarters.

The temple represents centuries of Buddhist architectural traditions in the Tohoku region, incorporating elements from the Jodo-shu Buddhist sect.

The temple complex features east-facing structures following Buddhist principles, connecting worshippers with traditional spiritual practices through designated prayer spaces.

Visitors can access the temple grounds through a stepped pathway, with dedicated parking areas available near the entrance gate.
