History and things to know
According to temple tradition, it is said to have begun when Akimoto Sandayū built its halls in Kan'ei 3 (1626), with the priest 本誉春貞 as founding priest. It later received Tokuhon Gyōja, from Kii, as its restorer, and successive chief priests have carried it on since then. In the grounds is the mausoleum of Tokuhon Shōnin.
