Activity itinerary

Gotokuji Station

  • 10m
The tour to Gotokuji Temple, a hidden Tokyo landmark whose precincts are filled with beckoning cats, starts here at Gotokuji Station on the Odakyu Line. A statue of a beckoning cat stands in front of the station, welcoming you to the temple.

Gotokuji Temple

  • 40m
Gotokuji Temple is a Zen temple in Setagaya, Osaka. The temple grounds are lined with numerous beckoning cat statues, a very impressive sight, and there is a reason for this. Legend has it that the samurai who built the temple was once invited by a cat to enter the temple building, where he was spared from thunderclouds, and the cat was believed to invite people and good fortune. The cat is not only cute but also brings good luck. Purchase a cat statue with your guide!

Manekineko Statue

  • 15m
A bronze statue of a beckoning cat also adorns the temple grounds. Along with many other beckoning cat statues, you can also take a commemorative photo in front of this bronze statue.

山下商店街

  • 20m
A traditional shopping street continues between Gotokuji and the station. Because the shopping street is located in the vicinity of the temple, goods and sweets in the shape of cats can be found along the street. Enjoy a pleasant shopping experience here.

Gotokuji Station (Pass by)

The tour ends at Gotokuji Station. From here, you can take the train to Shinjuku or other destinations.
