Katsuoji Temple
Minoh Temples & Shrines Nature Photography Culture Lover Outdoor Half Day
Overview
Katsuoji is a temple famous for “victory daruma” and is popular as a place to pray for success, especially among students and businesspeople. The rows of daruma dolls across the grounds have strong visual impact and photograph well, and the clear “victory luck” theme also makes it easy to explain to international visitors. It is a little outside central Osaka, but it is a good option when you want a quieter temple visit that feels different from city sightseeing. Access needs to be checked in advance. That part is always the annoying part.
