Jōgū-ji, Buddhist temple in Okazaki, Japan.
The temple grounds contain multiple traditional buildings, including a notable two-story pagoda displaying regional architectural elements of the Tokai region.
Matsudaira Chikatada established Jōgū-ji in 1475 as a memorial site for fallen Matsudaira soldiers and subsequent generations of Tokugawa Shoguns.
The temple features detailed screen doors painted by artist Reizei Tamechika and holds eight generations of Matsudaira family graves within its grounds.
Visitors can access Jōgū-ji daily from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with entrance fees of 500 yen for adults and 300 yen for students.
The temple buildings are positioned to create an uninterrupted view of Okazaki Castle through multiple gates, spanning three kilometers along the Vista Line.
