Bishamonten

大阪市城東区成育5丁目15−20

A mountain temple in Takatsuki City, Osaka Prefecture, said to be the first place in Japan where the deity Bishamonten was enshrined. It has deep ties to the Imperial Family and is also renowned as a famous spot for autumn foliage.

History

It is said to have been founded in 697 CE (Bunbu 1) by En no Gyohaku and is considered the sacred site where Bishamonten was first enshrined in Japan. In 774 CE (Hoki 5), Prince Kaisho revitalized the temple, which subsequently became an imperial petition site under Emperor Kōnin, establishing a close relationship with the Imperial Family. In the early Heian period, it became a temple of the Tendai sect.
