Tamon-ji, Buddhist temple in Sumida, Japan

The wooden temple features a triangular three-pillar torii gate and a moon viewing stage called getudai situated before the main hall.

Established in 1673, Tamon-ji Temple represents the last remaining wooden structure in the Sumida area, with the current building completed in 1933.

The temple holds significance in the Sumidagawa Seven Gods of Fortune pilgrimage route, where Ebisu-gami, the deity of wealth, receives particular devotion.

Located within a ten-minute walk from Tokyo Skytree, Tamon-ji Temple maintains open access throughout the year for visitors seeking spiritual experiences.

The temple grounds contain displays of wartime artifacts, including a steel frame from Asakusa International Theater and a tree trunk affected during the 1945 bombing.
