Kongoji (Kongoji Temple)

北区滝野川3丁目88−17

A temple of the Tozan school of Shingon Buddhism, enshrining a statue of Fudo Myoo (Acala, the Immovable Wisdom King) said to have been carved by Kobo Daishi as its principal image.

History

Traditionally founded by Kukai (Kobo Daishi) during his lifetime, it is said that Minamoto no Yoritomo constructed the main hall and donated farmland. It was revived by Ajari Yuin during the Tenmon period of the Sengoku era and established as a Shingon temple. Since the Edo period, it has been known as a famous spot for autumn foliage and is also called Momijidera (Maple Temple).
