*** Highlights of Kozanji Temple +++
Kosan-ji Temple was rebuilt in 1206 by the Kamakura period monk Myoe at the order of Emperor Go-Toba.
This famous temple also appears in the lyrics of the chorus group Dukes Aces' song "Onna Hitori."
The temple's treasure, the "Chōju-giga Jinbutsu-giga Emaki," is the roots of manga.
It is also the birthplace of Uji tea.
Myoe's most famous teaching was "behave correctly in your respective positions."
Myoe cut off his right ear to demonstrate his determination of faith.
Kosan-ji Temple has a fraternal relationship with the Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Italy.
