Tokoji Temple
# 3   of 4 most visited
sights in Hagi
access  -  admission  -  ratings

Tokoji Temple was founded in 1691 and belongs to the Obaku school of Japanese Zen Buddhism. Like most Obaku temples, Tokoji displays an architectural style which was quite strongly influenced from China.

Tokoji is the burial site of half of the Mori daimyo (feudal lords), who governed from Hagi during the Edo Period (1603-1868), and who were alternately buried at either Tokoji or Daishoin. The graves are located in the woods behind the temple buildings and are surrounded by hundreds of donated stone lanterns.

Any Questions? Ask them in our question forum.

How to get there
Tokoji stands about one and a half kilometers east of Higashi-Hagi Station. By bicycle, it is a 15 to 25 minute ride, which leads slightly uphill. Tokoji is also connected from Higashi-Hagi Station by the "Maru Bus" loop bus.
