This temple was founded in 963 by the itinerant monk Kūya Shōnin (903-972). As it was located at the western end of a cemetery, the bodies of poor people who died without a grave were taken care of there. It is of obvious architectural and sculptural interest. The temple was rebuilt several times, including in 1363, when the main hall, one of the oldest buildings in Kyoto, was built. The temple flourished in the 12th century, when the Taira clan had established its headquarters in the vicinity.
