A truly beautiful and incredibly peaceful spot, Kōenji Temple is one of those places that instantly slows you down. Tucked away from the noise, it offers a deep sense of calm, where every step feels meditative.

What struck me most was the intoxicating scent of flowers that filled the air during my visit, it made the whole experience feel almost dreamlike. The temple grounds are simple but full of charm, perfect for a quiet moment...

Very quiet serene temple.

It seems you can enter.

At first I thought I couldn't enter but after reading other reviews I searched around and found a side entrance that was open and peeked in and saw another Japanese visitor so I went inside. When I was coming back there were 5 other visitors so I think it's okay to come inside...

Koenji is a temple in Suginami ward. The name is used for the surrounding area and a station. You can see some plum trees on the premises. Today, the yellow cute plum flowers bloomed.

「見所が無い」とレビューしている方がいますが…？ 見所は…この寺の、そこはかとない上品さや、凛とした空気感ですよ。心の目を開けば、そこかしこに見所は有ります。良さが分かりますね。 とりわけ、秋の紅葉の時期に訪れるのが良いでしょうかね。 交番の所から続くエントランスは、小さい仏閣ながら、なかなかの雰囲気を醸し出しています。 又、寺には樹齢400年~500年ぐらいのイチョウの大樹が有りました。 因みに龍が彫られた鳥居は一番奥、本堂に向かって左手側です。 創建は1555年の戦国時代。 後の江戸時代の、この寺エピソードも良い。 江戸時代のエピソードとして、ここのお寺の和尚が将軍（徳川家光）と知りながら普段通り市井の人と等しく、えこ贔屓する事無く、さり気なく将軍をもてなした事から徳川家光に寵愛されました。 その後も、徳川家光は鷹狩りの際は必ず高円寺に寄ったとされます。 まるでドラマのストーリーですね。 普通なら将軍という事で、固くなりかしこまったもてなしになりがちですが、この和尚は、まるで流れる水の如く、自然な所作振る舞いで、質素に素朴にもてなしたらしいです。なかなか出来ない事です。 へたをしたら切り捨てられても、おかしくはないですからね。 （将軍に無礼は許されない時代です。普通はへりくだって、顔さえ見てはいけない時代です。いくら和尚とはいえ…利休などの前例も有りますからね） そんな特別扱いしない所作に、この和尚の人間の大きさ（覚悟や達観）を感じ取ったのかもしれないですね将軍は。面白いエピソードです。 そういう話しを知って訪れたら、色々な物が見えて来ますよ。 自分にとっては非常に良い寺です。 素晴らしい。
