Kōanji, Buddhist temple in Fuchū, Japan
The temple exhibits architectural elements from the Sōtō school of Zen Buddhism, featuring a main hall from 1803 and a bell tower from 1856.
The temple site occupies the former residence of Fujiwara no Hidesato and served as a transportation center for Kamakura Kubo Ashikaga between 1337 and 1392.
The temple name changed from Shisenzan Kenshoji to Ryumonzan Koan Gokokuzenji after renovations funded by Shogun Ashikaga Takauji in recognition of his contributions.
Visitors can reach the temple by taking either the JR Nambu Line or Keio Line to Bubaigawara Station, followed by a seven-minute walk to the entrance.
The temple maintained special tax exemption status during the Sengoku period under the Odawara-Hojo clan, with original seal documents still displayed on site.
