吉野町吉野山１０２４
A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) Buddhist temple located in Yoshino Town, Nara Prefecture, enshrining the Ryo-kon Kannon (Medicine Wheel Avalokiteshvara) as its principal image.
History
It is said to have been founded during the Engi era of the Heian period by the monk Nichizo. During the Nanboku-cho period, it was designated as an imperial prayer site by Emperor Go-Daigo. In the third year of Keian (1650 CE), the main hall was rebuilt by the monk Bunyo Tetsugyu, and the temple converted from Shingon Buddhism to Jodo-shu (Pure Land) Buddhism.
