瑜伽洞, Buddhist meditation cave in Sakae district, Yokohama, Japan
The cave system extends through three levels containing 17 interconnected chambers and passages covering a total length of 570 meters.
Buddhist monks from the Daikaku-ji School of Shingon Buddhism carved this cave network during the Kamakura period as a pilgrimage preparation site.
The cave walls and ceilings feature detailed Buddhist carvings depicting mandalas, eighteen arhats, and religious narratives created by Doshin Karukaya.
Visitors receive candles to navigate the cave passages during their exploration, with admission fees of 400 yen for adults and reduced rates for students.
Each chamber within the cave system maintains a constant temperature throughout the year, creating natural conditions for Buddhist meditation practices.
