What other travelers are saying about Kōshō-ji Temple
This is a pretty temple. I think the photos speak for themselves! It's quite spacious and when I visited at 4pm, there weren't many people.
Compared to the Kakuo-zan Nittai-ji temple, this Kōshō-ji temple is more rustic and personal. It's more cozy and welcoming, parts of it requires a bit of a climb, but there are escalators on one side.
This temple is a nice place to come and think.
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.
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.
It's a nice temple in Yagoto. Very calm and peaceful place. The temple garden is very big and it's a great place to spend some time. There is also an escalator to go uphill. There are some souvenir shops as well. It's very close to the Yagoto station. When you exit from exit 1 of subway, it's only a 100 m walk.
