Saidai-ji, located in Okayama, Japan, is a historic Buddhist temple that has been a significant religious site for centuries. The temple is renowned for its annual Hadaka Matsuri, or "Naked Festival," which attracts thousands of participants who vie for sacred sticks thrown by a priest. The event, held in February, is believed to bring good luck for the year.
