奈良市般若寺町２２１
A temple of the Shingon-ritsu sect located in Nara City, Nara Prefecture. It bears the mountain name Hossan and is known for enshrining the Bodhisattva Manjusri.
History
There are various theories regarding the time of founding and the founder, and the exact details remain unclear. However, it is certain that a temple existed on this site during the Nara period. According to temple tradition, it was founded in the first year of the Shomu era (629 CE) by the monk Keikan from Goguryeo. It is also said that Soga no Hukata founded it to pray for the recovery of Emperor Kotoke's illness. The temple flourished as a center of learning around the late Heian period, but it was destroyed by fire during the Burning of Nandaido in the fourth year of the Jisho era (1180 CE). Restoration efforts were advanced after the Kamakura period began.
