Jōganji Temple - Nakano City

The largest air raid shelter in Tokyo remains. You can tour the inside by contacting us in advance.

The temple itself is a good temple Good at making money just because it was made by Mr. Nakano There are many houses renting the land of this temple in the surrounding area, but there are also talks such as eviction because I will give you money. Buddhism is a local inhabitant who wonders what it is

"Joganji Temple" There is a graveyard of the Daimyo Hasuike Nabeshima family in Joganji. This is the only temple in Nakano Ward that has a graveyard for the daimyo family. The Nabeshima family in Hasuike (eastern Saga City) Nabeshima Naozumi was given 52,600 stones in 1639, and was separated from the Saga Nabeshima family. Ten tombstones are lined up in the graveyard, and there is a Jizo-style tombstone called Nabeshima Jizo in the back to the right of the graveyard. ~ Joganji Temple ~ Location 2-26-6 Honcho, Nakano-ku Access 500m from "Nakano Sakaue" station on the Tokyo Metro Marunouchi line

The gate closes at 5 o'clock. There are men and women and multi-functional toilets in the precincts. The nearest stations are Nishi-Shinjuku 5-chome and Nakano-Sakaue, which are the same distance from the platform, but it's a little easier because the one from Sakaue goes downhill. There is also a bus stop in front of you, so you can rest assured that you will be back home. From Nakano Sakaue, go out to Yamate Dori and walk on the sidewalk on the Mizuho ATM side. On the right side, past Seven-Eleven and Italian Chianti and past Daiso, A fairly large bamboo board wall, both natural and artificial, is the site of Naruganji Temple. The entrance gate is also magnificent and spectacular. From Nishi-Shinjuku 5-chome Station, turn right on Honan-dori and Yamate-dori. On the left side, past the sidewalk, gas station and Asahi distribution center, and crossing the Kanda River. (There is a gentle uphill about 30m on the way) Either way, it's a good distance for a walk. There is Lawson along Yamate-dori, but as soon as you turn left at the corner before the bamboo board wall starts, there is a Yamazaki convenience store with plenty of taste, and you can purchase Japanese sweets for a break. There is a magnificent "tea table" about 5m from the gate, where you can take a break on a park-style bench or a log-like bench. There is also an ashtray in one corner, smoking is possible, and a trash can is installed. Even though it is along Yamate-dori, it is strangely quiet and calming. In the summer, it's a semi-BGM, and it's quite a good idea to take a break. I don't know the name, but there is a small roof in front of the main building, which is decorated with carved zodiac signs. I enjoyed seeing the crafts at my acupoints. According to the storyboard on the premises, it seems to be a temple related to horses, and the horses were shaped to call for good fortune. Ru

Nakano Sakaue, Joganji Temple. I used to go for a walk from time to time, but for the first time inside. Passing through the characteristic Chinese-style mountain gates (Ryugu Gate) such as Nagasaki and Sofukuji Temple, you will find a space with a better view than you think. The precincts are clean and beautiful, with every corner cleaned. The graveyard of the Saga Nabeshima family. Speaking of the Nabeshima clan, Nabeshima Park in Shoto is famous, and the graveyard was surprising, but it is very well managed and the Nabeshima lord will surely be sleeping with peace of mind. I also posted a photo of it, but there is a stone statue with an interesting expression. (No, I drank too much ...) I overlooked what the statue was, but I sincerely hope that it will become famous as a symbol of tolerance that tends to be lost in this era. Gassho.
