Absolutely beautiful old old old fashioned Japanese Buddhist Temples. Very very nice Japanese community in old Torrance and Gardena! Definitely worth a trip SUN 9AM - coffee teas and donuts and activities after SUN SERVICE. BIG SMILES EVERYWHERE - even on their Reverend/Monks. Super kind and thoughtful community

My friend past away last year and his service was here. This was my first time attending a Japanese memorial service and was very special to me to be able to participate.

Their Japanese language school is very good and affordable. The street in front of it is a bit busy though. The city should add a couple more stop signs to deter speeding though this neighborhood.
