History [ edit ]
The family temple of both the Ashikaga and Uesugi clans , Hōkoku-ji was established by founding priest Tengan Eko in 1334 (the first year of the Kenmu era) to commemorate Ashikaga Ietoki , grandfather of Ashikaga Takauji the first shōgun Ashikaga shogunate .[4]
Known posthumously by his Buddhist name Butsujo Zenji , Eko was a member of the Five Mountains Zen literary school.[5] seals of his names "Tengan" and "Eko" are Important Cultural Properties and are in the Kamakura Museum on the grounds of the Shinto shrine Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gū .[6] [7] [8] [9] Muromachi-period painting of Arhats , and a pair of paintings of flowers and birds from Ming China , all Prefectural Cultural Properties kept in the same museum; a number of further works have been designated for protection at a municipal level.[10] [11] [12] [13]
Ashes of the Ashikaga family including Ietoki and Yoshihisa who both died by seppuku caves at the temple's west side.[2]
The 1923 Great Kantō earthquake destroyed most of the temple structures including the original straw roof on the main hall . A similar roof is maintained on the bell tower today.[1] [2]
Near the bell tower , five-tier memorial towers called gorintō 1333 battle in Kamakura that marked the end of rule by the Hōjō clan .[2]
Bamboo grove [ edit ]
A former annex behind the main hall was a training area where Butsujo Zenji also wrote poetry. Today a grove or forest of about 2000 mōsō bamboo sits in place of the annex. The site has a small tea house or chashitsu that is popular with tourists.[1]
