Ruyi Wheel Temple (Frog Temple) is a more worthwhile attraction than Dazaifu

Dazaifu is a popular spot in Fukuoka, and I originally planned to spend a day visiting Dazaifu, Tenmangu Shrine, and Kamado Shrine. I thought it might be a bit rushed, but because there were too many people and there weren't any particularly special sights to keep you there, I finished in three to four hours. So I searched online for nearby places to visit and found Ruyi Wheel Temple. It takes less than half an hour to get there from Dazaifu by taking the Nishitetsu train to Misawa Station, and then it's about a 15-minute walk following Google Maps after you exit the station. From the entrance, you can already see the autumn leaves in full bloom along the way, and then you see many different frog decorations of various shapes, materials, and sizes, which make you want to explore every corner and take your time to admire them. Even the ema (wooden plaques) and omamori (amulets) are frog-shaped, which is very cute. More importantly, there aren't many people; on the day I visited, there were only about a dozen tourists, so you can leisurely stroll around.
