This temple is located in Undo, Minamiuonuma City, Niigata Prefecture. It is one of the four Echigo Dojo temples of the Soto sect. It is called Kinjo-san. It was founded in 717 (Yoro 1) when Fusasaki, the grandson of Fujiwara Kamatari, built a temple for the memorial service of his mother, and was a Shingon Ritsu sect temple at the time. In 1420 (Oei 27), Uesugi Norizane appointed Don Eio as the founder and converted the temple to the Soto sect. It flourished as the family temple of the Uesugi clan, and the 10th head priest, Hokuko, was the devout follower of Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen. The temple treasures include a face plaque written by Emperor Juntoku and a military fan.
