Ozenji (Ozenji Temple)
〒409-1316 山梨県甲州市勝沼町勝沼３５５９
A temple of the Chizan-ha branch of Shingon Buddhism, it is also known as the 'Grape Temple' because the main statue, Yakushi Nyorai (Medicine Buddha), holds a bunch of grapes.
History
It is said to have been founded by the monk Gyoki during the Nara period, though it is also believed to have been established in the early Heian period. It served as the family temple of the Saegusa clan and is known as the place where Takeda Katsuyori stayed while praying for victory in battle. There is also a legend that Gyoki built the temple after seeing a vision of Yakushi Nyorai holding grapes in a dream.

The grounds feature impressive structures with a strong sense of history, including the Yakushi-do (Medicine Hall), which is a National Treasure, and the main hall. Seasonal grapes, wine, and grape juice are sold within the temple grounds. Visitors enter from the parking lot and purchase tickets, and the beautiful scenery that harmonizes with the surrounding nature is a notable characteristic.
