Fukoji Temple

南魚沼市浦佐2495

A Shingon Buddhist temple of the Hozan school located in Minamiuonuma City, Niigata Prefecture, enshrining the Great Sun Buddha (Dainichi Nyorai) as its principal image.

History

Founded in 807 CE by Sakanoue no Tamamaro, it was established as a betto-ji (administrative temple) for a hall dedicated to Bishamonten (the Four-Faced Heavenly King). During the Edo period, it received the patronage of the local lord, was granted temple lands, and was awarded a shuinjo (a seal of approval) by the Edo shogunate. In the Meiji era, it transitioned to the Shingi Shingon (Hozan school) sect.
