On July 5, 2025, hydrangea flower picking was held around Puko Temple in Bungo-Ono City Asaji, Oita Prefecture.
About 50 people participated in picking hydrangea flowers in and around the Precincts.
After about two hours, the Precincts turned green.
Thank you to everyone who participated.
I hope that the beautiful hydrangea will bloom again next year.
❚ What is Puguang Temple?
The polished Buddha carved in the Precincts is about 11 meters high including the pedestal, making it one of the largest polished Buddha statues in Japan. The giant Buddha in the center is Fudo Myoo. Fudo Myoo is a phase of fury, that is, an angry face, but this polished cliff Buddha has been exposed to the elements for many years and has a round and gentle expression. He is a big Fudo Myoo, but he has a very Traditional Japanese straw raincoat.
Puguang Temple is also known as the "hydrangea Temple", and many hydrangeas are planted. During the rainy season, you can see many hydrangea flowers and polished cliff Buddhas.
The hydrangeas planted are protected by the temple and the local community.
