Just less than an hour by train from Hakata station and take a few minutes walk. The recline buddha is located on the hill which takes few steps from ground. There are also a small waterfall, a giant statue, many small buddha Statues to see. No entree fee.

Nanzoin Shakaden Nokotsudo

Reviewed By pasherry

We rode the train from Hakata Station to this small town. There is a short walk to the base of the street leading up to the temple. There are stairs and roadways leading up but not too bad compared to other temples and there are shrines to stop at along the way. There are plenty of signs telling you about proper temple behavior and if you have tattoos you should cover them and also dress modestly. No photos are allowed of many of the statues but you can take photos of the reclining Buddha which is very impressive. We enjoyed exploring this sacred place, it was relatively uncrowded as no tour groups are allowed. Enjoy the serenity and spirituality of this place.
