Shinshu Otani-ha Takehana Betsuin

羽島市竹鼻町2802

3.8(239)

This is a temple of the Shinshu Otani-ha sect, formerly known as Gobo Senpuku-ji. Within its grounds stands a wisteria vine designated as a natural monument by Gifu Prefecture, which is one of the largest in Japan.

History

The temple's origins are said to date back to 1325 CE (Kagei 1), when nine residents of the Monma district took refuge in Shinran's teachings and built a simple thatched hut. In 1470 CE (Bunmei 2), Rennyo visited this site and restored the hut, which was later named Kawano Gobo. The temple was relocated to its current location in 1760 CE (Horei 10) and renamed Takehana Betsuin in 1886 CE (Meiji 19).
