Eiheiji Temple

Eihei-ji Temple, located 16 kilometers to the southeast of Fukui City at the center of the prefecture, is the headquarters of the Soto-shu sect, with 15,000 branch temples nationwide. It was originally built by the Buddhist monk Dogen in the 13th century. At the end of the 16th century, however, the disciples of Ikko-shu, another Buddhist sect, attacked Eihei-ji and burned the entire premises. It was rebuilt in the 18th century and has remained the same ever since.
In the vast precincts, with an area of some 330,000 square meters, there are seven monastery buildings: San-mon, a temple gate building; Butsu-den, a sanctum where the monks pray for peace and harmony of the people; Ho-do where priests recite Buddhist scriptures, preach and host various religious rites; So-do, the monks' quarters where they practice discipline; a kitchen called Koin; and Tosu which houses the baths and lavatories. These monasteries are surrounded by over 70 Do-u halls connected by corridors. Even today, some 200 ascetic disciples and itinerant priests devote themselves in strict ascetic practice there.
