Know before you go
If you want to witness a goma fire ritual, check the day's prayer schedule on arrival and plan your visit around it.
Expect heavy crowds: with about 10 million annual visitors, go on a weekday or earlier in the day for a calmer visit.
Naritasan Shinsho-ji was founded in 940 CE and is dedicated to Fudo Myoo (Acala), a major Buddhist protector deity.
Its large grounds include several Important Cultural Property buildings, adding historic architecture beyond the main worship areas.
Visit with respectful temple etiquette, especially around worship halls and ritual spaces dedicated to Fudo Myoo.
