Buddhist temples & pagodas
Tocho-ji Temple
Fukuoka, Japan
Tocho-ji Temple is where you’ll find Japan's largest seated wooden Buddha, towering at 10.8 meters and taking over 30 years to complete. The five-story pagoda and century-old structures invite quiet reflection. If you're there in early April, don't miss the blossoming cherry trees in the garden — a local favorite.
