Sainen-ji, Buddhist temple in Saku, Japan.
The Sainen-ji temple contains multiple halls and structures, including a main worship area and dedicated spaces for religious ceremonies and meditation.
Founded by Hanzo Masanari Hattori in 1594, the temple was established to honor Nobuyasu Matsudaira, the eldest son of Ieyasu Tokugawa.
The temple displays a large Nirvana painting measuring 284 centimeters in length, depicting the final moments of Buddha's earthly existence.
Visitors can obtain temple seals and amulets for 500 yen each, with the main hall opening for special exhibitions in February.
The temple houses the original spear of Hanzo Masanari Hattori, received as a gift from Ieyasu Tokugawa for military service.
