Located in Yoriki-cho, this Shingon Buddhist temple is also known as Tenman-ji. According to temple legend, it was founded by Kukai in 825, east of its current location facing the Okawa River, and had extensive temple grounds. The fourth head priest, Keicho, who served as the temple's chief priest during the Jogan era (859-877), was a close friend of Sugawara no Michizane, who is said to have stopped by on his way to Dazaifu and presented the temple with a wooden statue he had made himself. In 1396, Emperor Gokomatsu awarded the temple the imperial title of "Sugawarayama Tenmangu Temple." Following the Summer and Winter Sieges of Osaka, the temple was relocated to its current location and flourished until it was almost completely destroyed in the Great Osaka Air Raid of World War II. The current building was rebuilt in 1967. The interior of the temple's kitchen and main hall are not open to the public.
