Shouseizan Kousanji / Kousanji Museum

〒722-2411 広島県尾道市瀬戸田町瀬戸田553−2

4.1(2678)

Known as the 'Nikko of the West,' this tourist destination in the Seto Inland Sea features a collection of halls and pagodas modeled after famous Buddhist architectural structures from across Japan.

History

This Jodo Shinshu Honganji-ha temple was initiated in 1935 by Kinemoto Kousan, a prominent businessman active in Osaka during the Taisho and Showa periods, to mourn his late mother. Built on the concept of replicating famous historical structures from various parts of Japan, the entire complex was completed by 1965. Currently, 15 structures, including the main hall and the mountain gate, are designated as Registered Tangible Cultural Properties of Japan.

What visitors say

The vast grounds feature impressive facilities such as a dazzling structure modeled after Nikko Toshogu Shrine, the Senbutto-dou (Thousand Buddha Cave), and Mirai Shin no Oka (Hill of Future Mind). Although the admission fee is 1,400 yen for adults, it is highly rated for its high satisfaction value as it allows visitors to appreciate multiple highlights in one visit. There is a free parking lot nearby, but caution is required as some areas contain many stairs.
