欣浄寺, Buddhist temple in Ise, Japan.

Located in the Ichinoki district of Ise, Gonjoji Temple features a temporary main hall and serves as a place of Buddhist worship.

Founded in 1540 by Ekiyo Nenrensya, the temple underwent multiple relocations before settling at its current location in the Taisho period of 1917.

The temple holds the position of the 12th station among the 25 spiritual sites associated with Honen, the founder of the Pure Land Buddhist sect.

Visitors must make advance reservations by calling 068-275-4843, and the temple is accessible by a 500-meter walk west from JR Kintetsu Ise Station.

In 2021, a fire destroyed the main hall, leading to the establishment of a temporary prayer space while reconstruction efforts continue.
