A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple located in Suginami Ward, Tokyo. Its mountain name is Shoshokuzan, and its court name is Hougankuin.

History

This Jodo-shu temple was founded in 1617 CE (Genna 3) by Honrensha Shinyo Ritsutsu. It is said that the founder was Tokugawa Tadanaga, and the court name 'Hougankuin' derives from Tadanaga's posthumous name. The temple relocated to its current site in 1920 and was destroyed by fire during the air raids of 1945, but it was rebuilt after the war.
