Saifukuji Temple

大洗町磯浜町5298

4.1(69)

A Tendai sect temple located in Oarai City, Ibaraki Prefecture, enshrining Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) as its principal image. Within the temple grounds stands a hall dedicated to Fudo Myoo (Acala, the Immovable Wisdom King), which serves as the 28th station of the Northern Kanto 36 Fudo Myoo Pilgrimage. This deity is venerated as the 'Fudo Myoo of Good Fortune.'

History

The temple is said to have been founded either by the monk Eshin Sojin during the Kan'kō era (1004–1012 CE) or by Eishun during the Eian era (1429–1440 CE). Originally located in Shimada-machi, Mito City, it was relocated to its current site in 1677 CE (Enpō 5) by order of Tokugawa Mitsukuni. It was counted as one of the Ten Temples of Mito. After being destroyed by fire twice, the main hall was rebuilt in 1891 CE (Meiji 24), and this structure remains today.

What visitors say

The grounds feature a large main hall and a Fudo Hall, with a parking lot located immediately adjacent to the temple, making it easy to access. A small shrine dedicated to Fudo Myoo stands before the main hall, and Goshuin (shrine calligraphic seal stamps) are handwritten on the spot. Visitors can worship in a quiet atmosphere, and the dignified appearance of the shrine buildings is a notable feature.
