Seihouji Temple
京都市西京区大原野上羽町１６７
A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple located in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. Its mountain name (sangou) is Gan-kai-zan, and its court name (innou) is Houshoku-kaku-in. The temple enshrines important cultural properties, including a seated statue of Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha), a seated statue of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and a statue of Jizo (Ksitigarbha) associated with Itotsutsu-hime.
History
The temple was founded at the end of the Heian period when Daiju (Minister of the Left) Oomuro Kiyomune, who had become a disciple of the monk Hounen, converted his residence in Ichijou Shinmachi into a temple. It later moved to its current location following Toyotomi Hideyoshi's urban planning and the Ho-ei Great Fire. It also serves as the family temple (botuji) for the Fujiwara clan and the descendants of Emperor Uda.
