Daiji-ji, Buddhist temple in Tome, Japan

The Daiji-ji temple contains traditional Japanese architectural elements and functions as a center for Buddhist practices within the local community.

Matsudaira Chikatada founded this temple in 1429, which later gained importance as the family temple of the Matsudaira and Tokugawa clans.

The temple features a Tahōtō structure, designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan, constructed by Matsudaira Kiyoyasu in the 15th century.

Located at geographic coordinates 38.767611 latitude and 141.326278 longitude, the temple maintains regular hours for religious services and visitors.

In 1560, Tokugawa Ieyasu sought refuge at Daiji-ji after the Battle of Okehazama, where the chief priest prevented his planned ritual suicide.
