One of the Tofuku-ji towers. It was founded by Kanpaku Ichijo Uchikyo in order to mourn his father's bodhisattva during the Yuan Yen (1321-24), but it was diminished by fires and other events, resulting in the re-emergence of Ichijo Kaneki during the Gyeongan Year (1652-1705). It is also known as Sesifune-ji, due to the fact that there is a garden of Tsurukame, which is transmitted by the late Muromachi painter Sesshu Tōyō (Tōyō). In addition, it is reported that Ekan Ichijo, who was called "Cha-Kanpaku" during the Edo period, was entertained with tea at Tōfukuji Zunantei [and Odoi] during the Tofukuji Sanpo.

The Amitabha Buddha Twenty-Five Bodhisattva, which conveys the prayers of one thousand years to the present, is widely known as a Kyoraku autumn event reminiscent of the picture scrolls of the Pure Land in the modern era. The Twenty-Five Bodhisattva sitting statue, which is also designated as a national important cultural property along with the main temple of Amitabha, is Japan's only valuable cultural property as a three-dimensional sculpture of the Buddha, which is a collection of twenty-five bodhisattvas. In the small hall on the right side of the main hall, there is also a tomb that belongs to Yoichi Nasu, famous for the battle of Genpei.

It is the tower of Tofuku-ji and is known as the Temple of the Bumbu-ji. A brush offering is held on November 23 each year, in which the used-out writing tools in front of the brush mound are given thanks to the homaki.

The garden, built on a loose slope, is the Karesansui by the hands of Sanrei Shigemori, and is called the Nami Shin Garden. The elegant curves of white sand and green moss are so attractive. The stone pillars represent the light and are also known as the "rainbow mossy temple."

It was erected in the mid-Kamakura period as the Imperial Court of the Go-Horikawa Emperor. Gohon-son is a 10-meter-long wooden statue of the Buddha Buddha (jōbun), which is a co-production of Liuqing-Tankei.
