Overview
In Japan, there is a culture of decorating manekineko (beckoning cat) to bring prosperity, family safety, and good luck.
This temple is the origin of the beckoning cat.
When you enter the temple, you will be greeted by a large number of beckoning cats.
Many people visit the temple every day to see the beckoning cats and bring happiness into the temple.
Please join our walking tour to learn more about Japanese culture and the origin of beckoning cats.
This time, it also comes with a cute sweet in the shape of Maneki Neko.
I think it is so cute that you will take a picture of it without thinking.

Located in the city, yet surrounded by lush greenery, the temple offers a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere that allows visitors to forget their daily busyness. Please enjoy the seasonal changes in the temple grounds, with plum blossoms, cherry blossoms, peonies, azaleas, autumn leaves, and other seasonal plants and trees. Take a commemorative photo in front of this gate.

One day, a lord passing through this area on his way back from hawking was beckoned by a cat at the temple gate and decided to stop by. While he was staying at the temple, thunder suddenly rumbled and rain began to fall. The Tono was very touched by his good fortune, as he was able to avoid the thunderstorm and enjoy talking with the monk. Since then, Gotokuji Temple has called the cat that brought good fortune "Manekineko. Many visitors come to the temple to pray for good luck.
