Togan-ji is a Soto Zen temple in Nagoya's Chikusa Ward, best known for the Nagoya Daibutsu, a striking 10m green Great Buddha statue erected in 1987. Founded in 1532 in memory of Oda Nobuyuki, it moved to its current site in the Edo period. The grounds also hold a rare 16th-century Shiva lingam, and zazen meditation is offered on Sundays.
