Takumyoji - Ikeda

A temple of Jodo Shinshu. The sculpture inside the main hall is magnificent. There are things that we just built with luxuries.

Fukumaru-kun welcomes you when you exit Ikeda Station on the Hankyu Takarazuka Line! Cross the pedestrian crossing and go straight along the Sakaemachi shopping street There is a dentist called Awakawa Dental. Behind that is Jyomyoji. You'll understand immediately (^^) It seems that the gate is often closed. I've never seen the gate open... The ancestors of Ryomei-ji Temple are Maru Fujiwara Maruno Is said to have been born in 765. What's this Maru Katsurano! Go to Tang with Suisho & Kukai He returned to Japan in June of the following year and brought Tang culture to Japan. It's a great person (^^)/ His descendant, Nakahara Fujiwara, was a warlord who served Minamanaka. One of the last descendants of Nakamitsu was Naomi Bebe Became a monk after being taught by Renjou Spread Jodo Shinshu around Inagawa Town, Hyogo Prefecture In the days of those descendants, Hyemitsu Yukimitsu Oda Nobunaga and Ishiyama Honganji became a battle, killed in 1576 Gyoko's child, "Family", enters the monastery and becomes "Yugen." Opening the legal name “Kensen” of my father’s Hyemitsu We built a small temple called Shokakuji in Inagawa Town. This is the origin of Chomyoji. Yugen's child, Yusei, moved the temple to Ikeda in 1623. Approximately 100 years later, it will change from Shokakuji Temple to Ryomeiji Temple. There is a deep feeling in changing... There was a man named "Sora" in the younger brother of the fifth generation "Azure". Became a branch of the Katsurano family and started the sake brewing business, and the business was a great success! And I want to make Shokakuji a better temple At that time, there were strict architectural restrictions in the temple's formality. Then, we searched all over the country and found the venerable "Myoumei-ji Temple" in Niigata. Succeed in purchasing. And with the strength of my older brother Reconstruction of "Gyomyoji" with a luxurious main hall in 1724 The current main hall is from that time 280 years ago. The building has been built for 13 years Even now, I can see the gorgeous appearance. Ikeda City Important Cultural Properties 8 fusuma paintings of "Yoshimura Shuzan" from the Kano school of the Edo period "Plum and crane and paulownia and phoenix" are famous. The partition casually placed at the back door of the warehouse is also a valuable painting by Baba Nakabun. The main image is the Amida Nyorai statue, created in 1655. The inner Buddha Amida Nyorai wooden structure seems to have been made before the Muromachi period The bell tower was built in 1672 and rebuilt in 1992. The bell was originally built and was offered during the war. Luckily I'm back. In the graveyard is the grave of arithmetic teacher Nishimura Seemon. A tiler calculates the number of subtle curved roof tiles He had the brains needed for advanced mathematics. After that, Mr. Katsurano took over the priesthood and is now in the 17th century. It has a history of about 400 years.
