The temple is situated in a peaceful and secluded area surrounded by mountains and forests, providing a serene and tranquil atmosphere for visitors.
The temple complex consists of several buildings, including the main hall, meditation hall, dining hall, and living quarters for the monks. The buildings are constructed in a traditional Japanese style, with wooden beams and sliding doors. The temple grounds also feature a beautiful garden with a pond and a small waterfall, which is a popular spot for meditation and contemplation.
Eiheiji Temple is known for its strict monastic practices, which include long hours of meditation, chanting, and physical labor. Visitors can observe the daily routines of the monks, including their early morning meditation sessions and their meals, which are taken in silence. The temple also offers meditation classes and retreats for those interested in experiencing the Zen way of life.
Overall, Eiheiji Temple is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in Buddhism or Japanese culture. Its peaceful surroundings and rich history make it a truly unique and unforgettable experience.
