Historic Temple Beloved as Ikoma Shouten, Gathering Faith for Prosperous Business

About this spot

A Shingon Ritsu sect temple built on the mountainside of Mount Ikoma during the Edo period. Known affectionately as "Ikoma Shouten," it has attracted strong devotion from merchants in Osaka and Nara for its blessings of prosperous business. The scenic landscape of temple buildings clinging to the cliff face is spectacular. Climbing the stone steps from the gate to the main hall reveals a refreshing view overlooking the Ikoma townscape.
