Nanzoin Temple, Fukuoka, a popular check-in spot, famous for good fortune

Anyone who visits Fukuoka must not miss visiting Nanzoin Temple. It is one of the places that many tourists visit. It takes only half a day to travel and visit. How to get from Hakata Station: Start by taking the JR Sasaguri Line from Hakata Station to Kido Nanzoin-mae Station. It takes about 25-30 minutes. After getting off the train, walk for another 5-10 minutes following the signs to reach the temple. (Those with a JR pass can use it.) When you reach Nanzoin Temple, you will find a quiet natural atmosphere. The path into the temple is full of large trees and beautiful landscapes. Along the way, you will find various religious statues such as Buddha statues and many Japanese gods, as well as small waterfalls that add to the sacred and peaceful atmosphere. The highlight of this temple is the largest bronze Reclining Buddha in the world. This Buddha statue is about 41 meters long and 11 meters high. It is made of bronze, making it stand out in the middle of the temple. When you reach the point of worship, you can light incense and offer flowers at the altar in front of the Buddha statue. According to Japanese tradition, worship involves throwing small coins into the offering box and then making a wish. In Japanese worship, worshippers bow twice, clap twice to call on the gods or sacred objects, and then bow again to show respect. In addition to worshiping the Reclining Buddha, there are also many small shrines in the temple area that are important in terms of belief and religion for you to walk around and worship more. *It is recommended to prepare comfortable shoes because the temple area has a rather long walkway with some small hills. #Japan #Fukuoka #Temple #Get a discount without relying on luck
