天正寺, Buddhist temple in Omachi, Japan

Tenjoji Temple occupies the former site of a feudal residence, featuring traditional wooden architecture with intricate carvings and surrounding gardens.

The temple stands on the grounds of the Nishina clan's former mansion, which transformed into a religious institution after their defeat in 1582.

The temple maintains its position as the seventh stop on the Nishina pilgrimage route, with the main hall housing a seated Shakyamuni Buddha statue.

Visitors can reach Tenjoji Temple within 15 minutes on foot from Shinano-Omachi Station on the Oito Line railway.

The temple preserves Nagano Prefecture's sole triple-story pagoda, designated as an important cultural property of the region.
