〒675-2222 兵庫県加西市坂本町821−17

4.2(1310)

A historic Tendaishu (Tendai) temple located in Kasai City, Hyogo Prefecture, boasting a National Treasure triple pagoda and numerous Important Cultural Properties. It is also renowned as a scenic spot for cherry blossoms in spring and autumn foliage.

History

According to tradition, the temple was founded in 650 CE (Hakuchi 1) by the sage Hodo, who is said to have flown in from India, at the imperial command of Emperor Koto. By 1171 CE (Jōan 1), during the late Heian period, the temple complex had been established at its current location. In the medieval period, it served as a base for the Shingon Risshu (Shingon Precept) sect and is known as the site where the sect's founder, Eison, requested a visit, and where the monk Bunkanbō Kōshin entered the order.
