Sokuzuiji (Sokuzui Temple)

〒400-0011 山梨県甲府市上積翠寺町984

3.6(100)

A temple of the Myoshinji branch of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism located in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, with the mountain name Banso-zan. It is said to possess the well from which the birth water for Takeda Shingen was drawn, as well as temple treasures associated with the Takeda clan.

History

The founder is said to be Gyo-ki, and it was originally known as Sekisuiji (Stone Water Temple). During the Northern and Southern Courts period, Chikuhō, a senior disciple of Musō Soseki, served as the re-founder. During the Sengoku period, the Takeda clan hosted waka (Japanese poetry) and renga (linked verse) gatherings here. The well from which the birth water for Takeda Shingen is said to have been drawn remains to this day.

What visitors say

A quiet temple surrounded by mountains with a calm atmosphere. The main hall is located at the top of the stone steps at the front, and a storage-like building in the left rear houses the statue of Takeda Fudō Myō-ō (Fudō Myō-ō, the Immovable Wisdom King) enshrined as the Takeda Fudō Myō-ō Shingengū-zō (Statue of Takeda Shingen as Fudō Myō-ō). The temple grounds feature the birth water well and the birth water Tenjin (Tenjin, the deity of thunder and rain), but Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) are currently not available.
