Jizo-in

京都市南区東九条中札辻町53

A temple affiliated with the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism, commonly known as the 'Bamboo Temple' due to the bamboo groves surrounding it. It is also famous as the place where Ikkyu Sjun spent his childhood.

History

The temple was founded by Hosokawa Yorinaga on the site of a mountain villa that had belonged to Fujiwara Noriyoshi during the Kamakura period. Hosokawa Yorinaga invited Hekitan Shuko and established Muso Soseki as the founding abbot. The temple was destroyed by fire during the Onin War but was rebuilt in the Edo period, with the Kondo (main hall) reconstructed. During the Meiji period, it merged with Ryuji-ji and Enkei-ji.
