八事山 興正寺 Yagoto san Kosho-Ji
愛知県名古屋市昭和区八事本町78番地
Koushoji Temple
The extensive grounds of Yagoto-san Koushoji stretch across slopes in eastern Nagoya.
In 1686, famed monk Tenzui opened a temple among the trees in the peaceful setting of these rolling hills. This temple was then strongly connected with the historically important lords of the Owari branch of the ruling Tokugawa family. Well visited by pilgrims, it is also a site on the Chita-Shikoku 88 Merit-making, the Tokai 36 Fudo, the Owari 33 Kannon, the Nagoya 21 Daishi, and Nagoya 7 Lucky Gods prayer circuits.
The precincts cover two hills, Nishiyama to the west and Higashiyama to the east. Nishiyama formerly included the land where the Main Hall and Five-storey Pagoda are now located. In Higashiyama, you can see numerous structures, including magnificent halls and towers, built since the 17th century among the flourishing trees.
Within the grounds you can marvel at the only wooden pagoda in the whole Tokai region. Built in 1808, this elegant Five-storey Pagoda is a National Important Cultural Asset. Everywhere, in the ancient documents held in the halls, and in the Buddhist images and implements, you can see the centuries-old roots of history.
For each generation throughout 330 years, the gates of Yagoto-san Koushoji have been open to all who want to enter. Still today, young monks come here for training and, more than ever, the local people often come just to enjoy a stroll. On land that has been long revered, among ancient structures and monuments, surrounded by nature, you can find peace and leave your cares behind.
