Hakuhozan Ioin (Hakuhozan Ioin Temple)

橿原市城殿町286

This site is the former location of a temple known as the Yakushi-ji of Fujiwara-kyo. Today, the foundation stones of the Kondo (Golden Hall) and other remains are preserved within the grounds of Hakuhozan Ioin.

History

This was an official temple established by Emperor Tenmu, who vowed to build it to pray for the recovery of his wife, who later became Empress Jito. When the capital moved to Heijokyo, it came to be called 'Hon-Yakushi-ji' (Main Yakushi-ji) to distinguish it from the Yakushi-ji in Nishi-no-kyo. Currently, parts of the foundation stones of the Kondo remain within the Ioin grounds, and the site is registered as a World Heritage Site as the Hon-Yakushi-ji Ruins.
