Honen-ji Dai-mon (Honen-ji Main Gate)

熊谷市円光1丁目15−33

A Soto sect temple located in Enko, Kogawa City, enshrining Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) and Yakushi Nyorai (Medicine Buddha).

History

It is said to have originated when Naomoto, son of Koga Naomoto, established a Jodo sect hermitage to pray for his father's afterlife and placed a wooden statue there. Later, the Tōshō-gū shrine inquired about its lineage and commissioned the construction of Kogawa-ji, which subsequently adopted the name Honen-ji. The中兴 (re-establishing) founder was the monk Banshitsu Satsu, and it is currently a Soto sect temple.
