[Tokyo, Gotokuji] Take-out at a stylish cafe

A stylish shop in the style of an old Japanese house near Gotokuji Temple, the maneki-neko (beckoning cat) temple. I got a takeout cafe au lait for 600 yen. Since Gotokuji Temple is nearby, there were many foreign tourists ordering it. When ordering the cafe au lait, you are asked if you want your coffee strong, strong, or no sugar. I had my coffee strong and a little sugar. It was very delicious. Brownies for 250 yen, pound cakes for 380 yen, and chocolate chunk cookies for 250 yen are also available. Business hours Weekdays 8:30 - 20:30 Weekends 9:00 - 20:00 To prevent the spread of infection Weekdays until 19:30 Saturdays, Sundays and holidays until 19:00 Closed on Wednesdays 3 minutes walk from Gotokuji Station on the Odakyu Odawara Line 1-18-9 Gotokuji, Setagaya-ku #GotokujiSweets #GotokujiCafe #TokyoTourism #TokyoCafe #IRONCOFFEE

Gōtokuji Temple

I visited Gotokuji Temple, famous as the birthplace of the Maneki-neko cat, about a 10-minute walk from Gotokuji Station on the Odakyu Line. Countless Maneki-neko cats are enshrined within the temple grounds, creating a truly breathtaking sight! It's truly a great photo spot. The temple is also home to the magnificent grave of Ii Naosuke, a Tairo (chief advisor) of the late Edo period, allowing you to feel the footsteps of a notable figure in Japanese history. The lush green grounds have a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. It was a special place where you could experience the cuteness of the Maneki-neko cats and the weight of history at the same time. Access 2-24-7 Gotokuji, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. Approximately 10 minutes' walk from Gotokuji Station on the Odakyu Line. Atmosphere/Amenities - Historical building - Numerous Maneki-neko offering shelves - Quiet, lush grounds Recommendations - Must-see photo spot for the Maneki-neko offerings - Tomb of Ii Naosuke, a late Edo period lord - A temple that exudes both history and charm Visiting Hours 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM / 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM Rating: Very Good #JapanTravelGuide #DomesticTravel #TokyoSightseeing #TokyoTrip #GotokujiTemple #Maneki-neko

Gōtokuji Temple

If you are a cat lover, Gotokuji Temple in Tokyo’s Setagaya district is definitely a must! This temple is famous for its large number of lucky cats, and it is truly spectacular! Rows of small lucky cats, looking down really melt heart ~ I have heard people say that the lucky cat of Hao De Temple is very spiritual, but they went to the scene to know exaggerated so much, and is not an ordinary lucky cat, is countless "cats" for you to check in and take pictures, completely cat owner's paradise! The best part is that you can also purchase the lucky cat on site, as a travel souvenir and souvenir value, really a "must buy"! Highlights of the Hau Tak Temple itinerary📸 Haodeji Temple is not very big, but quietly located in the corner of the city, it has a sense of peace that is characteristic of a Japanese temple. The most famous "Lucky Cat Gathering Place" is right next to the main hall. Thousands of lucky cats are densely packed, many of which are left behind after praying for blessings. If you want to feel the Japanese tranquility and art and are looking for a special travel memory, Gotokuji Temple is great! In addition, the lucky cat sold in the temple comes in a variety of sizes, the price is affordable, even small-budget free travel is no pressure, bought the lucky cat can be taken home and placed in the financial area (rumored to be really busy 🤣) Attraction Details Haode Temple 📍Address: 2 Chome-24-7 Gotokuji, Setagaya City, Tokyo 154-0021 Japan ⏰ Opening hours: year-round 06:00-17:00 (easy to arrange on weekdays/weekends) 🚇 Access: Take the Odakyu Line to Hautokuji Station and walk for about 5 minutes after exiting the station It is recommended to have fewer people in the morning, the environment is super quiet, slowly enjoy the lucky cat array in the temple! 🔥Playing Tips 1. "Must Buy"! Lucky cats can be bought on site, the smallest starting from a few hundred yen, super cute, suitable for travel souvenirs. 2. Show respect when communicating with monastery personnel. No fear of verbal barriers, everyone is friendly. 3. Try to keep quiet while taking photos and checking in and do not disturb other praying crowds. 4. There are several local small shops and snack bars nearby, where you can stop by for breakfast or afternoon tea in the morning. 5. The lucky cat background wall is definitely a photo spot for high-ranking people. Food recommendations If you have time on your schedule, you can look for snacks at the nearby Gotokuji shopping street. Recommended “Meiqiu Sushi” and “Cafe Pekoe” have local characteristics, the sushi is fresh and affordable, while the cafe sells handmade desserts. Transportation guide From the city of Tokyo, it can usually be reached by taking the Odakyu Line from Shinjuku Station in 15-20 minutes, making it a very convenient temple attraction for free travel. A walking experience of the surrounding residential areas is suggested to feel deeper into the everyday. Summarize the insights Whether you are a lucky charmer or a cat crazy, you must visit Hauduji Temple once! After watching the Thousand Cats, I took the lucky cat home. I was in a good mood and had a sense of ceremony #TokyoLuckyCat #Hautokuji Temple #JapaneseTemple #TokyoTravel #PhotoSpot #SeptemberGood Places2025
