Founded in 1403 by Ikuchi Morisada as the founder and Gyu-chu Shu-waku as the head priest, it was originally established as a Rinzai school temple. In 1444, Ashikaga Yoshimasa designated it as a prayer site for the shogun. It was revived during the Edo period and converted to the Soto school. The main hall was rebuilt in 2010.

What visitors say

Located on Shionoyama Hill overlooking Setoda Port, the temple is surrounded by a rich natural environment with many birds. The grounds feature a National Treasure triple pagoda, and the main hall is newly renovated. Visitors must climb a long staircase to reach the temple, but the view of the Seto Inland Sea from above is a highlight. There is no parking lot, and Goshuin (shrine calligraphic seal stamps) can be received at the main hall.
