The priest who tells Nittei which was also a chief priest of that time of Honkoku-ji of the Nichiren sect, and was also a poet to the Age of Civil Wars after that Jojakko-ji, It is said that it is the temple which retired on this background of poet yearning and was built in 1595. It is said that it names as a temple name as it is from the place referred to as that this ground has a feeling of Buddhistic Utopia and Jyojyakkoudo, and the name of Jojakko-ji was attached.
