Byoudouji Temple

富士宮市東町4−24

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple enshrining Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) as its principal image. The Sanmon (three gates) relocated from Yoshiwara in the early Meiji period is designated as a cultural property by the Fujinomiya City.

History

Founded in 1561 CE (Eiroku 4) by a monk named Ryoko. Initially located in the present-day Omiya-cho district under the name Gantokuji, it moved to the current Higashi-cho district in the late Tensho era and was renamed Byoudouji. During the Edo period, its land ownership was recognized by imperial edicts from the shogun. In the Meiji period, the main hall was used as a temporary schoolhouse, serving as an important educational institution for the local community.
