Kinryu-ji Temple

Kinryuji is a Jodo sect Buddhist temple located in Yorozucho, Tochigi City, Tochigi Prefecture. Nestled quietly amid the old townscape of Tochigi, it has long served as a spiritual refuge for the people of this region. In Tochigi, a town long known as a merchant center, the temple has continued to convey the compassion of the Buddha and offer prayers for the worldly wellbeing of its visitors. The temple grounds, changing with each season, soothe the hearts of visitors and relieve the weariness accumulated in daily life.
