Ryuhouji Temple
鎌倉市植木１２９
A Soto sect temple located in Kamakura City, with the mountain name Youkoku-san. It has a history of flourishing as the memorial temple for Tamano Castle, and is adjacent to the Important Cultural Property, the former Ishii Family Residence.
History
Founded in 1503 by Hojo Tsunemori in the area around Tamano Castle, with Taijo Soei as the founding abbot. In 1575, Hojo Ujikatsu relocated the temple to its current location to mourn Hojo Ujihisa, and renamed it Ryuhouji based on Ujihisa's posthumous name. In later years, it received offerings from Arai Hakuseki and was used as a lodging for Korean diplomatic envoys.
