Lonely Planet review for Konko Temple

Inside the low-roofed, high-modernist temple, you’ll find a handsome blond-wood sanctuary with a lofty beamed ceiling, vintage photographs of Konko events dating back 70 years, and friendly Reverend Joanne Tolosa, who’ll greet you, answer any questions about the temple or its Shinto-based beliefs, and then leave you to your contemplation. On New Year’s Day, the temple invites visitors to jot down a remembrance, regret and wish on a slip of paper to affix to a tree, and receive a blessing with sacred rice wine.
