Jorakuji (Manga Temple)

川崎市中原区宮内4丁目12−14

4.0(82)

A Shingon Chisan school temple located in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It is also known as the "Manga Temple" because manga created by manga artists are dedicated to the temple.

History

It is said to have been founded by the monk Koki during the Nara period as a place of prayer for Emperor Shomu. During the Heian period, it was part of the Inage Estate, a manor owned by the Fujiwara clan. In 1968, during a major structural repair, manga by artists were dedicated to the temple, leading to its nickname, "Manga Temple."
