Shari-Sonshoji, Buddhist temple in Ikuno district, Osaka, Japan.

The temple complex features traditional Japanese architectural elements with a main hall housing Buddha statues and sacred artifacts.

Founded in response to a miraculous healing when Ikuno Chouja's mute son regained speech after receiving three Buddha's ashes from Shoutokutaishi.

The temple belongs to the Obaku sect of Zen Buddhism, maintaining regular ceremonies and offering spiritual guidance to the local community.

Located 300 meters southeast of Ikuno Kuyakusho-mae bus stop, the temple welcomes visitors from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM with an entrance fee.

Three sacred Buddha's ashes, originally gifted by Shoutokutaishi, formed the foundation for the temple's establishment within Ikuno Chouja's residence.
