Visit Oita

Situated on the slopes of Mt. Futago in the Kunisaki Peninsula, Futagoji Temple was established in 718 and holds a rich historical and spiritual significance. At the entrance, visitors are welcomed by two towering 2.5-meter-tall Nio guardian statues, which stand watch over the approach. The temple is surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. In spring, vibrant cherry blossoms and azaleas adorn the grounds, while summer brings lush greenery and wildflowers. Autumn transforms the area into a tapestry of brilliant red and gold foliage, and winter offers a serene snow-covered landscape, creating a tranquil and majestic atmosphere year-round.
Visitors can enhance their visit with multilingual audio guides available in Japanese, English, Chinese, and Korean, which provide insightful information about the temple's history and surroundings.
