Naritasan Shinsho-ji Temple

The Buddhist temple has a history of over 1,000 years and attracts more than 10 million worshippers from across Japan each year. The main deity enshrined here is Fudō Myōō, said to have been created by Kūkai, the famous Buddhist monk who founded the Shingon sect in Japan.
The temple grounds feature many beautiful wooden structures, rich in traditional architecture. You can also witness the Goma-daki ritual, a sacred fire ceremony where monks burn wooden sticks as offerings while chanting powerful sutras, creating a deeply spiritual atmosphere.
