Honmon Butsu-ri-shu Yuusei-ji
京都市上京区一条通七本松 滝ヶ鼻町1005-1
This is the head temple of the Honmon Butsu-ri-shu sect and the oldest Nichiren-sect temple in the Kansai region. It houses a wooden seated statue of Nichiren from the Kamakura period, which is designated as an Important Cultural Property.
History
The temple was founded in 1308 CE (Kenkei 1) when the monk Nichiben converted the great-grandson of Fujiwara no Teika and established a temple on his former estate. During the Onin War, the temple was relocated to Kameyama in Tanba Province. In 1599 CE (Keicho 4), it returned to Kyoto. In 1694 CE (Genroku 7), the temple acquired Yuusei-ji, a sub-temple of the Yokawa branch of Mount Hiei, and moved the site of Honmon-ji there. In 1869 CE (Meiji 2), the priest Nichisen, who had guided the nearly abandoned Yuusei-ji, leased it as a place of learning. It later became the sole head temple and fundamental training ground of the Honmon Butsu-ri-shu sect.

What visitors say
Although it is not a tourist temple, visitors are free to stroll around the grounds and may enter the main hall to worship. There are cherry trees beside the gate, and the grounds feature a columbarium, a statue of Nichiren, and a treasure hall. It appears that Goshuin (shrine or temple calligraphic seal stamps) are not offered, but it is necessary to confirm whether commemorative stamps are available.
