Ankokuron-ji temple is one of the easily missed highlights of a sightseeing trip to Kamakura, sitting outside of the bustling city center. Its full name is My\u014dh\u014dkeky\u014dzan Ankokuron-ji (\u5999\u6cd5\u83ef\u7d4c\u5c71\u5b89\u56fd\u8ad6\u5bfa). The temple is one of several of the Nichiren sect of the Japanese branch of Buddhism. In fact, Ankokuron-ji temple was founded by Priest Nichiren himself around the year 1253 during his first visit to Kamakura. Rumors suggest Nichiren made the temple his home for several years.<\/p>\n
