What other travelers are saying about Ōsu Kannon Temple
One of Nagoya's most tamous Buddhist temples, right by the lively Osu shopping district. It's dedicated to Kannon, the Buddhist goddess of mercy.
I came here rainy Christmas day. There was chanting played via speakers. Along with the scent of incense, it was very peaceful experience.

A serene temple located at the heart of Nagoya, boasting a grand, unmissable appearance whilst offering tranquility in its prayer hall. Based right next to the lined shops of Osu, the temple is worth a visit if you are in the area. No photography is allowed inside.
Osu Kannon is one of the temples we visited on our tour when we were in Japan. It was very comfortable when we were there. We can spend more time and relax there. Osu Kannon is pretty big. It seems to have more locals there than some temples do, which have more tourists.
Beautiful place, came on a weekday after shopping around Osu Shotengai, Lady at the counter was nice to explain to us which candle to light our incense with, enjoyed our day there, only pity is there is scaffolding right infront of the temple door, regardless a wonderful experience
Edit:
Scaffold is gone!
