Manpuku-ji (Masuda)

Manpuku-ji (萬福寺) is a Buddhist temple located in the Higashimachi neighborhood of the city of Masuda, Shimane Prefecture, Japan.

The temple belongs to the Ji sect and its full name is Seiryūzan Jōkō-in Manpuku-ji (清瀧山浄光院萬福寺).

In 1374, Masuda Kanemi, the 11th chieftain of the Masuda clan and castellan of Nanao Castle, moved the temple to its current location and renamed it "Manpuku-ji", making it a bodaiji of his clan.

The current Main Hall of the temple dates from this 1374 reconstruction, and was designated an National Important Cultural Property in 1904.
