Enmanji Temple

海津市

4.0(2)

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple located in Kaizu City, Gifu Prefecture, enshrining Shaka Nyorai (the Buddha Shakyamuni) as its principal image.

History

Legend holds that the temple was founded during the Tenpyo era when the monk Gyoji, inspired by a vision from an old man, carved four Buddhas and one bodhisattva and established a temple to enshrine them by imperial decree of Emperor Shomu. Originally a Hosso-shu (Hossu) temple, it was converted to the Tendai-shu sect during the reign of Emperor Kammu. In 1678 CE (Enpo 6), the Jodo-shu monk Koyu Enku rebuilt the temple with the support of Tada Ujisuke.
