Rendai-zan Amida-ji (Lotus Peak Amida Temple)

京都市上京区鶴山町14−14

4.1(194)

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple housing the tomb of Oda Nobunaga. Its mountain name is Rendai-zan (Lotus Peak) and its court name is So-ken-in (General View Temple).

History

Founded in 1553 CE (Bunmei 24) by Gyomei Seigyoku in Sakamoto, Omi Province. It later received the patronage of Oda Nobunaga, and the temple grounds were relocated to Imaike Oomiyahara in Kyoto. Following the Honno-ji Incident, Seigyoku brought back Nobunaga's ashes and constructed his tomb; later, the remains of Oda Nobutada were also enshrined there. In 1587 CE (Tensho 15), the temple was moved to its current location due to Toyotomi Hideyoshi's reconstruction of Kyoto.

What visitors say

Located in a residential area, this temple has a deep connection to Oda Nobunaga. The grounds feature the tombs of Nobunaga, his eldest son, and his retainers, allowing visitors to stroll along the stone-paved paths. An admission fee is required to visit Nobunaga's tomb. However, if you request a Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp) at the main hall in advance, the abbot will write it by hand while you are visiting.
