Niyoin-ji

西東京市泉町2丁目15−7

3.7(95)

A Shingon Chizan-ha (True Word Sect, Chizan School) temple located in Nishi-Tokyo City, Tokyo. Its mountain name is Komyo-zan (Mountain of Bright Light) and its court name is Fukusei-in. It is the fourth station of the Musashi-no-Sansan-Kannon Reijo (Musashi 33 Kannon Pilgrimage) and the thirty-fifth station of the Tama-Hachijuhachi-ka-sho Reijo (Tama 88 Pilgrimage).

History

This Shingon Chizan-ha temple is believed to have been founded around the year 1500. In 1892, a fire destroyed the main hall and the principal image of Fudo Myo-o (Fudo, the Wisdom King), but the Kannon-do (Kannon Hall) survived. A five-ring pagoda (gorintō) of the seventh abbot, Eitei Ho-in, remains on the grounds, attesting to the temple's long history.
