Nagao-yama Myoraku-ji
川崎市多摩区長尾３丁目９−３ 妙楽寺
A Tendaishu (Tendai) Buddhist temple located in Tama Ward, Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, commonly known as the 'Ajisai-ji' (Hydrangea Temple).
History
It is traditionally said that Ennin, a prominent figure of the Tendai sect, established the temple as Iko-ji in 851 CE (Ninsu 1). It served as a place of prayer for successive generations of the Minamoto clan. The temple is depicted as a famous scenic spot in the Edo-period illustrated guide 'Edo Meisho Zue'. In recent years, it has become popular as the 'Ajisai-ji' (Hydrangea Temple) due to the planting of 1,000 hydrangea bushes.

What visitors say
Located on a hill, the temple requires climbing a slope if arriving on foot, but it is convenient to use a bus from Togawa Station or Jukagahara Station. Many hydrangeas are planted within the temple grounds, making the rainy season a particularly scenic time to visit. A parking lot is also available. Goshuin (temple seal stamps) can be checked at the temple office, which is open from morning until evening.
