History

Kohoan Temple stands in solitude in Ueno-cho, Nagahama, its name reflecting a state of spiritual independence and freedom from attachment. The temple serves as a sanctuary for Zen practitioners seeking to transcend the ego and discover their original nature. Within its quiet halls, the deep practice of meditation has enabled countless seekers to let go of illusions and find the freedom that comes from understanding the true nature of existence.
