Narito-zan Fudo-in Rikoshu-ji (Namikiri Fudo) is a temple of the Chizan sect of Shingon Buddhism located in Sanmu City, Chiba Prefecture. Situated on the mid-slopes of Ishizuka Mountain, it features a main hall built into a cliff face and is renowned as a site of faith for protection against maritime disasters.

History

The temple was founded in the 8th year of Tenpyo (736 CE) by the monk Giki, who prayed for protection against shipwrecks. In the early Heian period, Kobo Daishi (Kukai) relocated and established the temple at its current site. Known for centuries as Namikiri Fudo-in, it played a significant role in preventing maritime disasters. After the Meiji Restoration, it ceased its religious function and now survives as a cultural heritage site.
