Rinkyuji Temple

京都市左京区修学院林ノ脇

4.1(9)

A Rinzai Zen sect temple located in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City, adjacent to the Chogochaya (Central Tea House) of Shugakuin Imperial Villa.

History

The temple originated when the site of a villa built by Princess Akimiko (the eighth daughter of Emperor Go-Mizunoo) was converted into a temple after her death. It later became a nunnery (Ni-monjaku) where imperial princesses entered monastic life. During the Meiji era, part of the temple grounds was returned to the Imperial House and became part of Shugakuin Imperial Villa.
