Frog Temple with Wind Chimes and Soap Bubbles🐸

One of the spots that symbolizes summer in Fukuoka and is perfect for SNS! This time, we will introduce "Shohoji Temple" in Iizuka City, Fukuoka Prefecture. Frogs are placed here and there, and it is also known as "Kogaeru Temple" (Frog Temple). There are many frogs, from the Seven Lucky Gods of Frogs to stone statues and dolls. There are about 2,000 ornaments in the "Frog Room" at the back of the main hall. At Shohoji Temple, about 1,000 wind chimes are displayed in the not-so-large grounds. It has become popular as a photogenic spot in the summer. Soap bubbles are also blown, which makes it even more photogenic. Countless bubbles fly out of the frogs' mouths! And the best thing is that you can enjoy this photogenic space for free. I'm so happy! Wind chimes are set up from late May to late September. [Temples to visit as a set] -- The one to visit as a set is Nyorin-ji Temple. The reason is that it is the parent frog temple 💡 As some of you may have noticed, Shoho-ji Temple is the child frog temple, and it was named so because the head priest of Nyorin-ji Temple is the father of the head priest of Shoho-ji Temple 😄 So it's a good idea to visit them as a set! By the way, Nyorin-ji Temple is large in scale, as it is the parent temple ✨ Address: 1728 Yokokuma, Ogori City, Fukuoka Prefecture Access: 50 minutes by car from Shoho-ji Temple Trivia about the sound of wind chimes -- What kind of sound soothes you? The sound of a babbling river and the chirping of small birds are also soothing, aren't they! The "tinkling" sound of wind chimes has the same frequency as the two sounds mentioned above, and is said to have a healing effect because it induces alpha waves in the brain. 💡In addition, according to a certain experiment, the skin temperature of Japanese people drops when they hear the sound of wind chimes. 🧐It seems that wind chimes are indeed an item that makes Japanese people feel cool at the DNA level. 😆That's all! What do you think? With the coming hot season, why not try feeling cool with wind chimes in Fukuoka? 🎐~~~~~~~Information~~~~~~📍Shohoji Temple・Address: 401 Hiratsune, Iizuka City, Fukuoka Prefecture・Access: 45 minutes by car from Fukuoka Airport・Visiting hours: 24 hours・Visiting fee: Free~ ...
