慈眼寺, Buddhist temple in Moriyama, Japan
The temple features traditional wooden buildings with sloping roofs and a bell tower, surrounded by stone lanterns and natural rock formations in the garden.
Founded during the Heian period, Jigenji Temple withstood centuries of conflicts and changes, maintaining its original religious structures through the medieval period of Japan.
The temple holds regular Buddhist ceremonies where monks perform sutras and visitors participate in meditation sessions within the main prayer hall.
