is situated just accros from the Nashinoki Shrine (梨木神社) on the East side of Kyoto's Imperial Palace. It is famous because Lady Murasaki Shikibu (紫 式部) is believed to have written here “Tale of Genji” and “The Diary of Lady Murasaki”. Her great grandfather, Lord Fujiwara Kanesuke, built a mansion here and Lady Murasaki grew up here.
Rozanji Temple was built in the year 938 on a hill called Funaoka Yama situated at the northern outskirts of Kyoto by the priest Ryōgen (良源) better known as Ganzan Daishi (元三大師).
