Tenpuku-ji

Tenpuku-ji, Buddhist temple in Hanamigawa-ku, Japan

Tenpuku-ji is a Shingon-shu Buzan-ha temple in Hanamigawa-ku, Chiba, on Mount Hanashima. Its main image is an eleven-faced Kannon, carved according to temple tradition by Gyoki in 709, which gives the temple its name Hanashima Kannon. The Kannon hall where the image was first placed is said to have begun the site, with the temple later built as its betto-ji and the hall moved here.

Tenpuku-ji belongs to the Shingon Buzan school and carries the mountain name Hanashimazan. According to temple tradition, it began as a Kannon hall housing a statue carved by Gyōki in 709, the second year of Wadō; the temple was later built as that hall's bettō-ji, and the hall was eventually moved onto the temple grounds. Its principal image is a standing Eleven-Faced Kannon, a cultural property designated by Chiba Prefecture.

Tenpuku-ji belongs to the Shingon Buzan school and is known as Hanashima Kannon, after its main image, an eleven-faced Kannon.
