Ōyama temple ruins, Buddhist temple ruins in Komaki, Japan.
The archaeological site contains foundation stones and remnants of structures from a Buddhist temple that existed during the Nara and Heian periods.
Established in the late 7th century, the temple known as Ōyamamine Shōfuku-ji faced destruction in 1152 when Sōhei warriors from Mii-dera set it on fire.
Archaeological excavations in 1928 uncovered foundation stones, roof tiles, and ceramic artifacts that demonstrate the architectural methods of ancient Japanese temples.
Visitors can reach the ruins by taking a 20-minute walk from the Komaki Jinja-mae bus stop, with artifacts displayed at the Komaki City History Museum.
The temple held such importance that it was compared to Enryaku-ji, with local sayings noting their equal status on opposite sides of Japan.
