Myojushi (Myojushi Temple)

世田谷区北烏山5丁目15−1

4.3(73)

A temple belonging to the Hokke-shu (Honmon-ryu) sect, featuring a guest hall designated as a tangible cultural property by Setagaya Ward. It is one of the earliest temples to relocate to the Karayama-ji-machi area.

History

Founded in 1631 CE (Kangyo 8) by Honko-in Nichiu, it was originally named Myokanji. Later, by order of the shogunate, it relocated to Sarumae Village in Katsushika District, Musashi Province, and was renamed Myojushi after the dharma name of a physician's mother. Suffering severe damage in the Great Kanto Earthquake, it relocated again in 1929 to its current location in Kita-Karayama, Setagaya Ward.
