Shukoji (Zazenji)
豊岡市出石町東條３３
A Rinzai Zen sect temple in Toyooka City, Hyogo Prefecture, commonly known as Zazenji. It is the burial site of Zazen Soko and is renowned for its beautiful gardens, including the Fushikuen (Garden of Non-Knowledge), which is said to have been designed by him.
History
Founded in 1392 as the family temple of the Yamana clan by Yamana Ujikiyoshi. In 1591, Maeno Nagayasu invited Kupo Soshu to serve as the abbot, and Zazen Soko studied under him as a disciple. After the fall of the Yamana clan, the temple fell into disrepair but was revived in 1616 by Zazen Soko.
