Jindai-ji, Buddhist temple in Jindaiji Motomachi, Japan.
Jindai-ji spreads across extensive grounds with multiple buildings, including the main hall, bell tower, and several smaller shrine structures among dense vegetation.
Established in 733, Jindai-ji represents one of the oldest Buddhist temples in the Kanto region, serving as a religious center through different periods of Japanese history.
The temple maintains traditional Buddhist practices through daily fire rituals, seasonal festivals, and religious ceremonies that connect visitors with Japanese spiritual customs.
Visitors can access the temple grounds from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM, with direct bus connections from Chofu Station, Tsutsujigaoka Station, and Kichijoji Station.
The temple hosts Japan's third-largest Daruma doll market in March, where approximately 300 vendors display traditional lucky charms and figurines.
