History
The temple's history began in 1208 when Shinran first preached the Dharma. Later, during the time of Nyogaku, it was relocated to its current site and named Shōjō-ji. It received its current name during the Eikyō period (1429–1441 CE). In 1878, it became independent and formed a distinct school, becoming the head temple of the Jodo Shinshu Seicho-ji school.
