Yakudou Shinano Kokubuji
〒386-0016 長野県上田市国分１０４９
A Tendai sect temple located in Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture, enshrining Yakushi Nyorai (the Medicine Buddha) as its principal image. The grounds feature several historic structures, including the three-story pagoda, designated a National Important Cultural Property, and the main hall, recognized as a Prefectural Treasure.
History
This temple is the successor to Shinano Kokubuji, which was established in the Nara period by imperial decree from Emperor Shomu. During the Edo period, it was known as Joruriyama Shogen-in Kokubuji, and the Yakushi-do (Medicine Hall) within the main hall bears the alternate name Yakudou (Eight-Day Hall). Most of the temple complex was destroyed by fire during the First Battle of Ueda, but the three-story pagoda survived the blaze.
