Eikoin (Formerly Hakozaki-gu Yuensai)
〒812-0054 福岡県福岡市東区馬出５丁目３６−３５
A subsidiary temple of the Hakozaki-gu shrine complex, it houses city-designated cultural properties, including a wooden seated statue of Shaka Nyorai (Sakyamuni Buddha) from the Kamakura period. Within the grounds stands the Toudou (Lantern Hall), associated with a tea gathering between Sen no Rikyu and Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
History
Originally a sub-temple of the Zasu-bou (Head Abbot's Temple) within the Hakozaki-gu shrine complex, it was established during the Kan'ei era (1624–1644) under the patronage of Kuroda Tadayuki, the second lord of Fukuoka Domain. During the Haibutsu Kishaku (destruction of Buddhism) movement in the early Meiji period, the monk Goin Kenshu relocated and preserved Buddhist artifacts related to Hakozaki-gu and its associated temples.
