Sojiji (Soji-ji Temple)

西東京市田無町3丁目8−12

4.2(210)

A temple of the Chisan school of Shingon Buddhism, also known as Tanabe Fudo Myo-o (Fudo Myo-o of Tanabe). It is recognized as the 10th station of the Kanto 36 Fudo Myo-o Pilgrimage and the 33rd station of the Tama 88 Pilgrimage.

History

Founded in the Genna era (1615-1624 CE) as Hokkai-san Seiko-ji (Seiko-ji Temple of Mount Hokkai), it was relocated to its current site in the Keian era (1648-1651 CE). In 1875 CE (Meiji 8), Seiko-ji merged with the neighboring temples Mitsuzo-in and Kannon-ji, and was renamed Tanabe-san Sojiji (Sojiji Temple of Mount Tanabe). During the Edo period, it served as the betto (head temple) of Ijinden Gongen-sha (now Tanabe Shrine).

What visitors say

Despite being located in the heart of the Tanabe town, the temple grounds are quiet and serene. A large zelkova tree stands within the grounds, allowing for a peaceful visit. A parking lot is located near the approach path, making access convenient. As the 10th station of the Kanto 36 Fudo Myo-o Pilgrimage, the temple also offers Goshuin (a shrine's calligraphic seal stamp).
