Sekikeji (Snow Path Temple)

日本、〒781-0270 高知県高知市長浜857−3

4.1(663)

A Zen Buddhist temple of the Myoshin-ji school located in Nagahama, Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture. It is also the 33rd station of the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage.

History

It is said to have been founded by Kukai. During the Kamakura period, the sculptors Unkei and Tankei visited the temple and renamed it Keiunji (Temple of Auspicious Fortune). It later became the memorial temple for Chosokabe Motochika, a great daimyo of the Sengoku period, and was renamed Sekikeji (Snow Path Temple) after Motochika's posthumous Buddhist name. The temple was once closed during the Meiji era but was re-established in 1879 (Meiji 12) and achieved full restoration by 1911 (Meiji 44).
