Eihō-ji, Buddhist temple and National Treasure in Tajimi, Japan
The temple complex includes several buildings dedicated to worship and meditation, connected by an arched bridge over a pond with koi fish.
Founded in 1313 by the Nanzen-ji branch of Rinzai Zen Buddhism, Eihō-ji temple underwent a major restoration in 2007 following a fire in 2003.
The temple maintains traditional Zen practices through regular zazen meditation sessions and houses important Buddhist artworks, including the Kenpon Choshoku Senju Kannonzo silk painting.
Located one hour from Nagoya City, the temple offers free parking facilities and displays its historical treasures during annual spring exhibitions.
The temple grounds feature two structures designated as National Treasures and gardens recognized as a Place of Scenic Beauty by Japanese authorities.
