Shofuku-ji Temple, Fukuoka ● 聖福寺
► Shofuku-ji Temple is located in Gion-area of Hakata, Fukuoka.
(Only one stop by Kuko Subway Line from Hakata Station.)
It was founded in 1195, making it the oldest Zen Temple in Japan.
The center of the mainbulding houses 3 golden buddha statues, each approx. 3½
meters tall.
The place is well worth a visit if in Fukuoka; It's not overrun by tourists, and the templeground itself is most pleasent, with small ponds and trees, making it a small oasis in the middle of Fukuoka.
Shofukuji Temple, Fukuoka ☆ Japan's 1st Zen Temple 福岡市聖福寺 ☆ Japan As It Truly Is
This temple was completed in 1195 and founded by Myōan Eisai, who introduced Zen to Japan from China (as well as green tea). This makes it the oldest zen temple in Japan. While you cannot enter the buildings themselves, the architecture is quite striking and the large space is often empty and peaceful. It is just a 3 minute walk north of the Gion Subway Station, and if it's hard to find it's because there are a dozen other temples right in the same area.
Seeing Shofuji with the nearby Great Buddha at Tochoji makes a great combination.

Naritasan Jibo Kannon Temple - Giant Buddhist pagoda and Kannon statue in Kurume, Fukuoka
When Christianity was outlawed and repressed in Japan in the early 17th century during the Edo Period, many Japanese Christians, mostly in Kyushu, substituted a statue of Kannon with a child for the Virgin Mary and Jesus and were, therefore, able to publicly continue to practice their faith.
One of these statues is the Jibo Kannon Statue, which lies within the
grounds of Naritasan Temple. The concrete Kannon Statue is 62 meters tall, and visitors can pay a small fee to go inside the statue and climb stairs to the top for a good if cramped view. Be sure to head to the basement of the statue when you're done, where you can see an animatronic Buddhist hell which is not to be missed.
The Daihonzan Naritasan Kurume Temple was founded in 1958 as part of the spiritual embodiment from the Daihonzan Naritasan Shinshoji Temple in Chiba prefecture was given to the temple. It is famous for housing the Fudo Myo, or the Buddhist Vicarious Protector.

Sofukuji Temple, Nagasaki - 崇福寺●長崎市 - Japan As It Truly Is
Sofukuji temple is often overlooked in the stampede for Peace Park and Glover Garden, but really shouldn't be. It looks a bit weathered because it is - a 1629 Ming Dynasty Zen temple and one of the finest examples of architecture from its period - even in China there are few surviving places that surpass it. Its existence testifies to the presence and influence of the Chinese residents in Nagasaki. It's closest to the Shokaku-ji or Shianbashi streetcar stops.

SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go to the beautiful city of Tokyo (japan) and let's visit (briefly) the outside area of Sensō-ji temple which is an ancient Buddhist temple located in Asakusa, Tokyo. It is Tokyo's oldest temple, and one of its most significant. Formerly associated with the Tendai sect of Buddhism, it became independent after World War II. Adjacent to the temple is a five-storey pagoda, Shinto shrine, the Asakusa Shrine, as well as many shops with traditional goods.
Japan is an island nation in the Pacific Ocean with dense cities, imperial palaces, mountainous national parks and thousands of shrines and temples. Shinkansen bullet trains connect the main islands of Kyushu (with Okinawa's subtropical beaches), Honshu (home to Tokyo and Hiroshima’s atomic-bomb memorial) and Hokkaido (famous for skiing). Tokyo, the capital, is known for skyscrapers, shopping and pop culture.
Here. we will briefly view a polished bronze buddhist statue, located by the entrance to the temple, that gets rubbed by the visitors for good luck and good health.
