Myomanji

京都市左京区岩倉幡枝町91

4.3(492)

The head temple of the Kenpon Hokke sect, Myomanji houses the 'Snow Garden' designed by Matsunaga Sadanori and a bell associated with the legend of Anjin and Seihime.

History

Established by Nichizan during the Muromachi period with the patronage of Tennoji Yadori Myo, the temple underwent repeated relocations and reconstructions due to conflicts and fires from the Azuchi-Momoyama period through the Edo period. It moved to its current location in Iwakura in 1968. It also serves as the ancestral temple for the Sotayama and Toyota clan families.
