蓮花寺, Buddhist temple in Ibaraki, Japan
The temple features a principal statue of the Thousand-Armed Kannon, accompanied by two attendant figures representing the Dragon Queen and Rain Treasure Child.
Founded in 886 by Fujiwara no Yamakage, the temple underwent reconstruction in 1603 under Toyotomi Hideyori following destruction during the Sengoku period.
The temple holds an annual culinary ceremony on April 18th, maintaining a tradition that originated from formal dining presentations during the Muromachi period.
Located within a 5-minute walk from Sojiji Station on both JR Kyoto Line and Hankyu Kyoto Line, the temple welcomes visitors from 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The temple preserves a connection to Japanese culinary traditions through its founding figure, Fujiwara no Yamakage, who established formal cooking protocols.
