Zuihō-ji, Buddhist temple in Aoba-ku, Japan.
Zuiho-ji Temple exhibits a collection of traditional Buddhist architecture, including the Takao Gate, bell tower, and main hall situated on Kyogamine hill.
The temple was established in 1637 by Date Tadamune, the second lord of Sendai Domain, as a memorial site for his father Date Masamune.
The temple grounds contain numerous graves of samurai retainers who performed ritual suicide and soldiers who died in the Boshin and Satsuma Rebellions.
Visitors can reach the temple via the Loople Sendai bus from Sendai Station, alighting at Zuihoden stop for a five-minute walk to the entrance.
The temple's Takao Gate was relocated from the residence of Sugiwara no Shina, a concubine of the third Sendai lord Date Tsunamune.
