Yōgen-ji, Buddhist temple in Sendagi, Japan

Yōgen-ji is a Buddhist temple in Sendagi that blends traditional temple architecture with a modern performance venue. The complex houses both religious spaces and a live music hall within this residential neighborhood in northeastern Tokyo.

The temple was established as a religious site and evolved over time by incorporating a modern performance space. This adaptation reflects how traditional Buddhist centers adjust to meet contemporary community needs.

The temple serves as a place for Buddhist worship and also functions as a venue where local musicians perform, bringing together spiritual practice and artistic expression in daily community life.

The temple is easily reached via Sendagi Station on the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line. Visitors can explore the grounds and should check ahead about performance schedules and religious activities happening during their visit.

The temple houses a live music venue where music lovers regularly encounter local and independent artists, creating a rare blend of spiritual practice and contemporary arts. This combination of religion and music makes it an unusual gathering place in Tokyo's cultural scene.
