Jokaiji Temple
稲沢市大塚南1丁目33
A Shingon Chisan-ha sect temple located in Inazawa City, Aichi Prefecture, enshrining a Shinkoji-style Amida Trinity statue. It houses several cultural properties, including the main hall (hondo), a pagoda, and a Tahoto (many treasures pagoda), all designated as Important Cultural Properties.
History
It is said to have been founded during the Kounin era (810–824 CE) by Kukai, with Aizen Myo-o (Aizen the Wisdom King) as the principal deity. During the Jisho era (1177–1181 CE), an Amida Trinity statue was installed. The temple was later revived during the Kenkyu era (1190–1199 CE) when Hasebe Minemasa served as the founder and Romin as the founding abbot. Subsequently, it received the patronage of many prominent figures, including Hojo Tokiyori and Tokugawa Yoshinao.
