Ryuhozan Matsuida-in Fudoji Temple

安中市松井田町松井田甲987

4.1(72)

A Shingon Buddhist temple of the Hozan school, known by the name Ryuhozan Matsuida-in. Its main image is the Thousand-Armed Kannon Bodhisattva. The temple has deep historical ties to the Takeda and Tokugawa families and houses numerous historical buildings and cultural properties.

History

The temple's origins date back to 1243 CE (Kangen 1), when Master Jimyo from Shimoji Yakushi-ji Temple enshrined an image of Fudo Myoo (Acala, the Immovable Wisdom King). During the Kamakura period, it received the patronage of Hojo Tokimune, and in the Sengoku period, it was supported by the faith of Takeda Shingen. In the Edo period, it received a land grant (shuinchi) from Tokugawa Iemitsu. In its heyday, it was a major temple complex comprising 17 subsidiary temples.
