A Rinzai Zen sect temple in Ukyo Ward, Kyoto City, affiliated with the Nanzenji branch. Its mountain name is Daibai-zan. The temple features a National Treasure stone pagoda, a Buddhist hall designated as an Important Cultural Property, and a Fangzhang (guest quarters).

History

The temple was founded in 1289 CE (Nin'an 4) when the nun Shinrin-in established the main halls. In 1339 CE (Karyo 2), the monk Getsurin Do-ko entered the temple, converting it to the Rinzai sect and reviving it. Although it was destroyed by fire during the Onin War, it was restored by Yamana Sogon.
