Gokurakuji Bell Tower
直島町宮ノ浦７３３
A temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect located in Naoshima Town, Kagawa Prefecture. Its mountain name is Hachiman-yama, and the principal image is Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha).
History
It is said to have been founded in the early Heian period during the Jogan era (859–876 CE) by Seihō (Rigen Daishi), who established the temple on this site. Later, a monk who had come from Aki built a hall to pray for the posthumous merit of the exiled Emperor Chōtoku, and enshrined a sacred image of Amida Buddha that had been retrieved from the sea.
