This Confucian temple was founded in 1632 by Razan Hayashi, a neo-Confucian thinker and tutor of the first shōguns Tokugawa. Originally built in Ueno, it was moved to its present site by the shōgun Tsunayoshi in 1690. Clearly marked by Chinese influences, the temple, which was originally vermilion-colored, owes its present appearance to a reconstruction in 1935. Confucian temples are rare in Tokyo, and all its charm comes from the trace that time has left and the calm of the garden. The contrast is striking with the nearby Kanda-Myojin shrine.
