Kongōshin-in, Buddhist temple in Miyazu, Japan.
The temple complex contains multiple traditional structures including a two-storied pagoda, main hall, and front gate spread across the grounds.
Established in 808 under Emperor Heizei's order, the temple received an imperial scroll from Emperor Daigo during the Engi era of the 10th century.
Originally dedicated to Esoteric Buddhism practices, Kongōshin-in later transformed into a Zen temple of the Rinzai Sect's Myoshin-ji School.
Located within a five-minute walking distance from Amano-hashidate Station on the Kitakinki Tango Railway Miyazu Line, the temple welcomes visitors throughout the year.
The temple houses an iron bathtub called Tetsuyubune, crafted in 1290 by Sadakiyo Yamakawa, which now functions as a water basin for ritual purification.
