About this event
The "Honmyo-ji Temple Autumn Festival" will be held at Honmyo-ji Temple in Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Prefecture. Around the main hall, which serves as the venue, 20 vendors including kitchen cars (food trucks) and stalls will gather, offering gourmet items such as curry, crepes, and karaage fried chicken, as well as general goods, workshops, and medaka (killifish) scooping, creating an array of shops enjoyable for adults and children alike. In addition, there are plenty of free activities, such as a "Health Stamp Rally" touring the temple grounds and a "Traditional Games Corner" where you can play with beanbags and kendama. As a unique temple experience, a "Shakyo (Sutra Copying) Gathering" accessible even to beginners will also be held (advance reservation required). Please visit Honmyo-ji Temple with family and friends during this pleasant autumn season.
