A Soto Zen temple with the mountain name Kinryuzan. It enshrines a statue of Hotei, one of the Hachioji Seven Lucky Gods.
History
The temple is said to have been founded in 1590 when Matsuhime (Shinshoni), the fourth daughter of Takeda Shingen, relocated from Shingenin to a thatched hut at Hachioji Gosho-mizu. Shinshoni is the founder, and Uchizan Shungetsu is the founding abbot.
