Kiyomizu-yama Kengoin Yoshida-ji
斑鳩町小吉田1丁目1−23
Affectionately known by the nickname "Pokkuri-ji (the bucket temple)," this temple is renowned for its spiritual benefits in ensuring a peaceful passing. It houses the important cultural property, the Tahoto (many-storied pagoda), and a wooden statue of the seated Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha).
History
It is said to have been founded by imperial decree of Emperor Tenji, and is also traditionally said to have been established in the first year of the En'en era (953 CE) by the Tendai monk Genjin. The temple converted to the Jodo sect in the third year of the Genroku era (1690 CE). Within the temple grounds lies an ancient tomb (kofun) believed to be the burial site of Princess Maman.
