Katchaman’s Amazing JAPAN guide at Fukui Power Spot (Sacred Place) “Eiheiji Zen Temple in Summer[夏の永平寺・福井県]“

I went to Eiheiji Zen Temple in this summer. Here is very peaceful!

It is one of the two head temples of the Soto sect of Buddhism. Eihei-ji was established in 1244 by Zen master Dogen Zenji (1200-1253), who studied Buddhism in China and introduced Soto Zen Buddhism to Japan.



   

 

 



Access: Echizen Railway Shosan Eiheiji line and get off at Eiheiji-guchi (25min, ￥440). The temple is about 10min walk from the station (turn right as you exit and go uphill).
