Shomyo-ji, Buddhist temple in Hekinan, Japan
The main hall of Shomyo-ji Temple exhibits traditional Japanese architecture with wooden beams, curved roofs, and detailed ornamental elements throughout its structure.
Founded during the Muromachi period, Shomyo-ji Temple has maintained its religious functions through generations of Buddhist practitioners in the Hekinan region.
The temple gardens incorporate specific arrangements of rocks, water features, and plants that demonstrate the principles of Japanese landscape design.
The temple opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with access through the Meitetsu Mikawa Line to Hekinan Station followed by a short bus ride.
Each season brings distinct changes to the temple grounds, from spring cherry blossoms to winter snow accumulating on the temple structures.
