This is a famous temple built in 1130 by Kakuban, the opener of Shingi-Shingon Buddhism. The sect enjoyed its influence as one of the biggest military gang with more than 10,000 armed priests called as "Negoroshu" in the late Muromachi era. "Daitou", a national treasure, "Taishi-do", an important cultural asset, the garden of main lodging, a national scenic beauty preserve the traces of the old days when they were built.
