Hakubouzan Hongouji
飛騨市古川町弐之町１−１７
A temple of the Jodo Shinshu Honganji-ha sect, featuring the main hall (hondo), which is the largest wooden structure in the Hida region. It is known as part of the 'Sanji Maiiri' (Three Temple Pilgrimage) along with nearby temples.
History
The temple originated from a thatched hut built by Kyouryo, the dharma successor of the 11th abbot of Shorenji, during the Tenbun era. In the 8th year of the Keicho era (1603 CE), the current temple name was established, and the temple transferred its affiliation from the Otani-ha to the Honganji-ha. It was destroyed by the 1904 Furukawa Great Fire but the main hall was rebuilt in 1913.
