Secret of the Tokyo Suburbs | A REAL Hidden Gem

Step off the beaten path and discover a tiny corner of Tokyo you truly have to see to believe. Welcome to Myohoji Temple in a charming neighborhood of Koenji. In over 20 years of living in Japan, I've rarely, if ever, seen a tourist here. This isn't a history lesson or a travel guide—it's sharing a peaceful sanctuary that feels worlds away from the city's crowds. Join me as I share my honest feelings about this beautiful hidden gem. This is a truly authentic slice of traditional Japan. If you're a fellow traveler who loves getting off the main tourist trail, this one is definitely for you. Wait until the end to see this temple's dramatic final secret!!

From Shinjuku Station, take the Marunouchi Line bound for Ogikubo. Get off at either Higashi-Koenji Station (M04) or Shin-Koenji Station (M03). Both are about a 10-15 minute walk from the temple. A helpful tip: If you get off at Higashi-Koenji Station, you can also see Umezato Park on the way. From either station, walk south for approximately 10-15 minutes, headed toward the Summit Supermarket in Horinouchi, which is located off Route 318.
