Kaiunzan Kodaiji (Soto Sect)
長崎市寺町１−１
One of the three great temples of Nagasaki and a temple of the Soto sect. It houses designated tangible cultural properties of Nagasaki Prefecture, including the Sanmon (main gate), the Niomon (King of Heaven gate), and the Daibutsuden (Great Buddha Hall).
History
Founded in 1608 by Kiko Rikaku, the abbot of Koutokuji, as Kasutogama Koutaiji. It moved to its current location in 1626, and in 1642, Emperor Meisho bestowed the current mountain and temple names. The main hall, monks' quarters, and dormitories built in the 1660s withstood the atomic bomb, but were rebuilt in 2023.

What visitors say
A kindergarten is attached to the temple, so the lively voices of children can sometimes be heard. Visitors note that the precincts are quiet and have a solemn atmosphere, with beautiful autumn foliage near the gate. There are many temples in the surrounding area, and the cemetery on the back mountain features interesting sights such as boundary stones and pagodas.
