Kongō-in, Buddhist temple in Maizuru, Japan.
The temple grounds contain a three-story pagoda designated as a National Important Cultural Property, surrounded by maple trees and traditional gardens.
Established in 829 by Prince Takagake during the Heian period, the temple underwent significant restoration under Emperor Shirakawa's patronage in the medieval era.
The temple houses numerous cultural treasures, including the Jinsha Taisho statue, a masterful creation by the Kamakura period sculptor Kaikei.
Located at 595 Shikahara, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 to 16:00, with an entrance fee of 300 yen and additional 500 yen for the treasure hall.
The temple serves as the third station on the Kansai Flower Temple pilgrimage route, with seasonal displays of cherry blossoms, hydrangeas, and Japanese iris.
