A Tendai sect temple located in Ōmi-Hachiman City, Shiga Prefecture, and the 31st station of the Saigoku Sanjūsan Kannon (33 Kannon Pilgrimage of the West). Situated on Mount Chōmeiji, it is believed that visiting the temple will grant a long life.

History

It is said to have been founded in 619 CE (Suiko 27) by Prince Shōtoku, based on the legend of the long life of Takeda Sukune. It was re-established in 836 CE (Jōwa 3) by Rai-chi, and its monastic complex was organized in the late Heian period by Sasaki Sadamitsu and others. During the medieval period, it maintained its status as a branch temple of the West Pagoda of Enryaku-ji on Mount Hiei and flourished under the patronage of the Shogun Hatakeyama clan.
