🛡️ Warding off misfortune

A temple of the Shingon Risshu sect located in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, with the mountain name Fukuden-san. It is known for the Disaster-Averting Jizo Bosatsu Grand Festival held every February and is affectionately known locally as 'Yaku Jizo-san' (Disaster-Averting Jizo).

History

It is said that Kukai founded the temple in the 3rd year of Daido (808 CE) and that Koja established its lineage in the 9th year of Tenryaku (955 CE). During the Kamakura period, Rankei Dochu served as the reviving founder and rebuilt various halls. In the early modern period, it became a branch temple of Myooin in Yamamiya Village.
