The temple's name, Zofukuji (Zofukuji Temple) of Seikozan Byakugoin, is a Jodo sect temple with a standing statue of Amida Buddha. It is the 32nd temple on the Osaka New 48 Vows Amida Pilgrimage. It was founded in 1602 by the monk Ryoyo Meitaku Daiosho. The main hall was destroyed by fire in 1615 but rebuilt in 1772. The temple gate, which escaped the fire, survived the Great Osaka Air Raid and remains in its original form to this day. Since the Edo period, the temple has served many parishioners who have contributed to the publishing industry in the Kamigata region, earning it the reputation of being the "temple of publishers" and "temple of bookstores" in Osaka. The Byakugoen Garden, a permanent memorial tomb for the seated Amida Buddha on an inverted lotus flower, was cast in 1601 with the hope of women's salvation. Regardless of religious affiliation, ashes are interred among the gently smiling Buddha, and the tranquil surroundings offer a peaceful and peaceful visit.
