Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Zenkoji Temple, located in Nagano City, Nagano Prefecture, is a Buddhist temple with a history of more than 1,400 years. Interestingly, Zenko-ji Temple has no sect. It is said that people of all faiths from all over the country can come to the temple to worship. Therefore, there are more than 6 million people who visit Zenko-ji Temple every year. Zenkoji Temple mainly enshrines Amitabha Buddha, but this Buddha statue is a secret Buddha and is only open to the public on certain days, and is hidden in the temple on weekdays. The altar worships with devotion. If you encounter the big lock directly below the Buddha statue on the top of your head during the tour, you can enter the paradise of bliss behind you. The ancient Zenkoji Temple and this Buddha statue are both important cultural heritages in Japan, and they are also a must-see when visiting Nagano.

If you visit Nagano City, it can be said that it is a standard destination. Many tourists were worshiping. Starbucks on the street are also fashionable.
It takes only about 10 minutes to drive from Nagano Station, whether by bus or subway. It is very convenient to have small towns and shops in front of the gate of Shanguang Temple, selling specialty snacks and handwriting. Shanguang Temple is a wooden building with fine handwork and historical value. It is definitely worth seeing.
Come to make a wish every year, happy every day.
The scenery here is really beautiful, the environment is good, it is worth everyone to go
