Tenngen-ji

港区南麻布4丁目2−35

4.0(85)

A temple of the Daitoku-ji branch of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism located in Minami-Azabu, Minato Ward, Tokyo. It enshrines a wooden statue of Bishamonten (the Buddhist guardian deity of the north) associated with Prince Shotoku as its principal image.

History

In 1719 CE (Kyoho 4), the temple was established by the monk Rodo, a dharma heir of the eighth-generation abbot Yikei of Shoun-ji. The Fumei-ji temple, originally located in Kohnohara Go-danake-machi, was relocated to its current site and renamed Tamon-zan Tenngen-ji. After being destroyed by fire in the Great Fire of Edo in 1845 CE (Koka 2), it was rebuilt. It was again destroyed by fire during World War II, but a ceremony to mark its reconstruction and the enshrinement of the Buddha was held in 1967.
