Kouseiji Temple
名古屋市昭和区八事本町７８
A temple of the Shingon sect, commonly known as Yachi Kannon. The grounds are divided into Nishiyama Fumon-in, which houses the Nishiyama Main Hall, and Higashiyama Henjo-in, which contains the Oku-no-in (Inner Sanctum).
History
Founded in 1688 by Tenzui Ensho, the temple received the title 'Yachizan Henjo-in Kousei Ritsuji' under the patronage of Tokugawa Mitsutomo, the second daimyo of the Owari Domain. Since then, it has prospered as the prayer temple of the Owari Tokugawa family and has come to be known as the 'Koya of Owari.' It is a special head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect.
