Anrakuji, Shakyo (sutra copying) experience

Come experience sutra copying at Anrakuji Temple (2-6-1 Okada, Samukawa-cho) on the second Sunday of every month (From 15:00, closed May and August). We have several chairs available, so those who are not comfortable sitting on the floor are more than welcome to join in. Our temple is said to have been built during the Yoro period (710-794), and our main statue of Dainichi Nyorai is a Buddhist image dating back to the Heian period (794-1192). On the hill behind the main hall remains "Ojinzuka," a late 4th-century round backward-facing burial mound, of which you can climb to the top to view Mt. Fuji and be enveloped by the power of ancient prayer.
