🐸【Fukuoka Seikagezan Nyorinji Temple｜A lucky journey surrounded by 10,000 frogs! 】

#FukuokaItinerary Who knows, my friends, there is such a healing and magical ancient temple hidden in Fukuoka - Seikageyama Ruyilun Temple, also known as the "Frog Temple"! In the thousand-year-old temple that has been in existence since the seventh century, there are 10,000 frog statues of various shapes, which are so cute that they make girls' hearts burst💞 🌿【A temple scenery that heals you as soon as you step into it】 Stone frogs of various sizes stand on both sides of the approach to the temple. Some hold gold coins, some carry money bags, and there is even a "Zen frog" wearing a bamboo hat. You can discover new surprises every few steps! The giant "five-yen gold coin" in front of the main hall is a must-see spot. The Japanese word "five-yen" is homophonic with "御缘". It is said that touching the frog relief on the copper coin can attract wealth and good luck. Remember to put your hands together and make a specific wish~ ✨【Three fortune-bringing ceremonies you can’t miss】 1. Pass through the "Wakou Prayer Tunnel": Deep inside the temple, a large golden frog opens its mouth to form an arch, and whispers a wish as it passes through the tunnel, implying that "happiness returns from the frog's mouth." At the exit, there is also a "lucky array" formed by a group of mini frogs. Remember to stop and take photos! 2. Collect limited edition goshuin: The temple office provides frog-themed goshuin, with a red background, gold-foil frog patterns and an image of Acala. The calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, a must-have for collectors! 3. Order a "Smiling Frog Amulet": The sales counter next to the Ema-den sells exclusive amulets. The golden frog face has a healing smile, and the words "wish fulfillment" are printed on the packaging. It is full of ingenuity to give to friends or use for yourself~ 🚃【Transportation strategy: Walking into the countryside like Hayao Miyazaki】 Take the Nishitetsu Tenjin Omuta Line to Misawa Station and walk for 15 minutes along the green trail. Along the way, you will see rice fields and streams, as if you were walking into a cartoon scene. If you choose to drive yourself, the parking lot has special "frog-foot-shaped" parking spaces, which are full of ingenuity in details! 🎋【Seasonal limited romance】 • April: Yoshino cherry trees on both sides of the shrine are in full bloom, with pink petals falling on the frogs’ heads, creating a wonderful picture of “flowers and frogs”; • August: When the lights are turned on at night, thousands of paper lanterns reflect the frogs, creating a mysterious beauty; • November: Red leaves cover the temple's stone slabs, creating a poetic contrast with the bronze frog statues. 💡【Practical Tips】 ▫️ There is a free hand-washing station in the temple. Remember to wash your hands in the order of "left → right → mouth" before visiting; ▫️ On weekends, local artists occasionally hold "Frog Handmade Experience" (such as ceramic frog ornaments), so you can pay attention to the official website in advance; ▫️ Recommended to combine with a day trip to the nearby "Ogori City Museum of Art", which houses Japanese modern paintings and frog-themed collections. Here, ancient beliefs and cute elements coexist wonderfully - when the sound of wind chimes passes through the frogs and the sun shines on the prayer ema, you suddenly understand why the Japanese call this place "frog therapy for the soul." If you also want to escape from your troubles temporarily, why not come to this "Frog Sanctuary" and let thousands of cute animals accompany you to regain simple happiness~ #Fukuoka Secret Place #Japanese Temple Tour #Frog Temple #Lucky Attractions #Kyushu Niche Travel
