長遠寺, Buddhist temple in Mount Fuji region, Japan
The Chōenji Temple sits at the base of Mount Fuji, featuring traditional Japanese Buddhist architectural elements with wooden structures and curved rooflines.
This temple dates back to the Edo period when Buddhist institutions served as centers for religious education and community gatherings in rural Japan.
The temple maintains regular ceremonies following Buddhist traditions, including morning sutras and meditation sessions led by resident monks.
Visitors can access the temple grounds daily from sunrise to sunset, with dedicated parking spaces and ceremonial areas for religious observances.
The temple bell, cast in 1756, produces specific resonant tones that change with the seasons due to temperature variations affecting the metal.
