日本、〒586-0053 大阪府河内長野市寺元475
A historic temple serving as the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect, housing cultural properties such as the Kondo (National Treasure) and the statue of Juroku Kannon.
History
Traditionally said to have been founded in 701 CE (Daihō 1) by En no Gyōja. Later, Kūkai visited, enshrined the statue of Juroku Kannon, and granted the temple the name 'Kanshinji.' During the Kamakura period, it became the memorial temple for Kusunoki Masanari and was also used as a traveling palace for Empress Go-Murakami. In the Sengoku period, Oda Nobunaga confiscated its temple lands, among other historical shifts that saw it play an important role throughout history.
