Buttsu-ji Temple

Reviewed By hfot2 - Vermont, United States

The walk from the bus stop takes you under some lovely overarching trees. Allow a lot of time for wandering and photographing. The momiji against the buildings make for wonderful images. Rows of statues along the wall, lanterns, one arching momiji set in raked sand, bridges - everything cries out to be photographed. Many buildings are worth visiting for the statues alone. Before you leave, climb the steep stairs. The old founder’s hall and a newer pagoda are at the top, rewarding you for your climb. Visitor tips: Train from Hiroshima to Mihara Station, then a bus to Buttsu-ji. Check out schedules to make the timings work. Be sure to take a photo of the list of return times for the bus. There are not many and you don’t want to end up waiting an hour. The temple is up in the hills and it can be chilly, dress accordingly. There are restrooms (and a smoking area) tucked in the far corner and one nearer the entrance - get a map and they are clearly marked. The people selling tickets and giving out the maps at the entry point had no English. They did give us a map, in Japanese only. I have seen online maps with English but the ticket people did not have any. You can take a photo of the larger sign board with a map at the entrance by the bridge and this can be very useful if no maps are available. Entrance fee is charged in autumn foliage season (and sakura season from what I can tell). It is well worth it. At other times of the year entrance to the temple appears to be free.
