Tokukoin
神戸市中央区葺合町布引山２−３
A temple of the Tenryuji branch of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism located in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture. It features historic structures, including the Taho Pagoda (a Multi-Story Pagoda), which is designated as an Important Cultural Property and has been relocated to this site.
History
Established between 1887 and 1905 by Masazo Kawasaki, the founder of the Kawasaki Zaibatsu (conglomerate) in Kobe, using his personal funds. It belongs to the Tenryuji branch of the Rinzai school and invited Zen Master Ryugen Takagi to serve as its founding abbot. The temple was named Tokukoin after Masazo Kawasaki was granted the title of 'Bodhisattva of Virtuous Light' (Tokuko Bosatsu).
