What other travelers are saying about Kōshō-ji Temple
Serene. Empowering. Beautiful.
My limited vocabulary cannot explain the experience of visiting this shrine on an empty weekday afternoon.
The entrance is obviously grand, and inviting in its own special way. The big Buddha statue does not disappoint.
The forest and paths around the temple are absolutely worth the dérive - you easily lose time, especially if your phone’s switched off because you don’t plan day trips well (:
Do walk around the estate and find labelled paths around the monastery area, ritualistic spaces, the eating buddhas, the woods, and the running track.
A typical Japanese Buddhist Temple in Nagoya. It's not far from the subway station...just a walking distance. The temple has a very nice tower with a big Buddha. Bessie, there's a nice building next to the main hall which can enjoy tea or water.
Very great Temple complex. It was bigger than I thought. There is also a path you can walk. You do have to be carefull when it rains since the path can be slippery. Nevertheless I would recommend making a quick viqit. It's free and very beautiful
This temple is very historic, beautiful and clean. The peacefulness of this location is really amazing. It's hard to believe that this temple is in the middle of a busy city.
There is a little forest reserve which you have to cross to get to the temple and this walk is very beautiful. If you are visiting Nagoya, especially the Yagoto area, this is a must visit place.
