Fukushō-in, Buddhist temple in Naka-ku, Japan

The Fukushō-in temple stands as a religious structure within the central district of Naka-ku, featuring traditional Japanese Buddhist architectural elements.

Founded in 1394 by Shimazu Motohisa, the temple operated until 1869 when it was dismantled during the national movement against Buddhism in Japan.

The temple represented the principles of Sōtō Zen Buddhism, influencing religious practices and meditation methods in the Naka-ku community.

The former temple location, marked by coordinates 35.171617, 136.9013, now houses the Kagoshima Gyokuryu Junior and Senior High School complex.

Despite its physical absence, records of Fukushō-in, known in Japanese as 福生院, remain preserved in historical documents and academic studies.
