Yachū-ji, Buddhist temple in Habikino, Japan

The temple grounds contain stone foundations of a pagoda and main hall, with several preserved structures from different historical periods.

Founded in the 7th century by Prince Shotoku and Soga no Umako, the temple suffered destruction during the Nanboku-cho period and underwent reconstruction in the Edo period.

The temple houses two National Important Cultural Properties: a Hakuho-period Maitreya Bodhisattva statue and a Kamakura-period Jizo Bodhisattva statue.

The temple interior opens exclusively on the 18th of each month from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM, while the temple grounds remain accessible throughout the year.

The temple belongs to the Kawachi Sandaiji temples and maintains remnants of the Ship Clan burial grounds, who were immigrants from Baekje.
