#MarchGoodPlaces2025

Zuiganji Temple is the only national treasure temple in Toyama Prefecture, located in Takaoka City. If you want to go to the Ameharu Coast, you must change trains in Takaoka and take a tour of this temple, which represents the ascetic tradition of Japanese Zen Buddhism and the customs and customs of the Edo period.

The main gate and mountain gate of Ruilong Temple are tall and majestic, with two majestic and angry Vajra statues standing on both sides of the gate. After crossing the two gates, you will reach the pure land of the temple. There is a statue of Sakyamuni enshrined in the courtyard. The wall reliefs are of different styles, which are mixed and integrated with each other, making the temple particularly magnificent.

The ticket price is ¥500. If you want to drink tea in the teahouse, you can buy a combined ticket for ¥900. Chinese maps and explanations are provided. Zuiryuji Temple has an inseparable relationship with the Maeda family, so the family crest decorated with plum petals can be seen everywhere.
