Ueno Mido
太子町太子
A temple associated with Prince Shotoku, known as the head temple of the Taishu sect, a core of Prince Shotoku worship. Within the precincts lies the Hoku Kofun (North Mound) at Eifukuji, believed to be the burial site of Prince Shotoku, his mother, and his consort.
History
The site was designated by Prince Shotoku as the location for his tomb. It is said that Koka-ji Temple was founded to protect Prince Shotoku's mausoleum after the deaths of his mother and consort. At the request of Emperor Shomu, the eastern and western cloisters were established, and during the Heian period, many emperors visited the temple. Because it contains the tomb of Prince Shotoku, who was revered as the founder of Japanese Buddhism, it served as a core center of Prince Shotoku worship alongside Horyuji and Shitennoin-ji.
