About this event
The autumn special night pilgrimage 'Chion Hoon - Daytime Splendor, Nighttime Illusion - Five Days of Gratitude Amid the Lights' will be held at the National Treasure Zuiryu-ji Temple. At this event, autumn Zuiryu-ji is illuminated with elegant lighting, and the National Treasure Sanmon gate, Buddha hall, and dharma hall emerge against the night sky illuminated in mystical light. The temple grounds are enveloped in a solemn atmosphere, creating an enchanting space distinct from its majestic daytime appearance. Many visitors come to pray for the divine protection of Ususama Myo'o, a deity of the restroom believed to possess the power to burn away impurity and evil. It will be 5 days to reflect on gratitude with daily feelings of appreciation amid the lights.
