Kanshuji
京都市山科区勧修寺仁王堂町２７−６
The head temple of the Sanke branch of the Shingon sect, this monzeki (a temple headed by a high-ranking member of the imperial family or aristocracy) has deep historical ties to the Imperial House and the Fujiwara clan.
History
Founded by order of Fujiwara no Sadahira to honor the memory of Fujiwara no Ineko, the biological mother of Emperor Daigo, it served as a monzeki temple with strong connections to the Imperial House and the Fujiwara clan. It is the head temple of the Sanke branch of the Shingon sect. Although the temple was destroyed by fire during the Onin War, it was later revived following the arrival of Prince Saijin.

What visitors say
The temple features a strolling garden with a pond, allowing visitors to quietly enjoy seasonal flowers such as plum blossoms and cherry blossoms in spring, hydrangeas in summer, and autumn foliage. A large, free parking lot is available, making it easy to visit in a calm atmosphere. While entry to the buildings is restricted, the garden landscape, which includes structures designated as Important Cultural Properties, is a notable feature.
