Warum der Umweg sich lohnt

Thousands of white cat figurines recall the legend of a beckoning cat that saved a feudal lord and inspired the maneki-neko tradition.

Gōtoku-ji is a Sōtō Zen Buddhist temple in Tokyo, known as the 'cat temple' for its thousands of maneki-neko figurines. It also serves as the family temple for the Ii clan, with historical significance dating back to the Edo period.
