Renkoji Temple (連光寺), Place where Netaji's Ashes are Preserved, Tokyo, Japan
Subhas Chandra Bose, known as Netaji is a famous Indian Freedom Fighter during the time of British Occupation of India. Netaji is the first leader of the Indian Army, which he created to fight the occupation of India. During that time, Britain was involved in World War II and fighting Japan too.
Netaji sought Japan's help in fighting the British Occupation of India. Unlike the non violent methods sought by Mahatma Gandhi (another famous Indian Freedom Fighter), Netaji wanted to defeat the British militarily.
In the end, it was believed that Netaji was killed in the fight with British but some also believe that he survived his military excursions with the British and secretly moved to Austria after India gained independence from British to spend rest of his life there. There are many stories and controversies surround the death of Netaji.
In any case, Netaji's ashes purportedly ended up at Renkoji Temple and have been preserved in a golden pagoda at this Temple. This temple has been visited by many Indian dignitaries, leaders and officials since their independence from British in 1947. To this day, many visitors from all over the world come here to see the location where Netaji's ashes are kept.
The temple (連光寺) itself belongs to Nichiren sect of Buddhism and has been in the Suginami Ward since the late 1500s.
