Nestled in the heart of Nagoya, the Kakuōzan Nittai-ji Temple stands as a testament to the enduring friendship between Japan and Thailand. Established in 1904, this unique Buddhist temple was built to house the sacred ashes of Buddha, gifted by the Thai King Chulalongkorn.

What other travelers are saying about Kakuōzan Nittai-ji

五顆星給的是佛陀舍利，全日本唯一的釋迦摩尼佛骨舍利。莊嚴與莊重感一顆星：5000年前佛祖舍利、泰國國王新贈與的聖物，我以為週邊會更莊嚴、更莊重、參拜的人會絡繹不決，這次2月初平日週二13：30到達，正殿服務的櫃檯14：30就關門，舍利塔、金剛塔也無緣參見（關柵欄、可以從外圍遠看），這就當作我們沒做足功課。比較可惜的是，佛陀舍利金剛塔是在本堂大殿幾百公尺外，舍利金剛塔跟日本其他先人墳墓、孤魂塔擺在一起，而不是佛像、菩薩殿等，感覺把佛骨跟一般先人遺骨視為同等級，有點可惜。日本一般神社都有的祈福處所、參拜香爐香燭、御守小物等，舍利金剛塔當天都沒看到（大殿有）。實在覺得惋惜，昔日各國甚至為了佛骨舍利大動干戈，現今卻“感覺”不被重視。應該就是所謂“儀式感”不足吧。羨慕日本有個開放所有人都可以瞻仰的舍利，天祐日本。
