formally identified as Jubuzan Kōdai-ji (鷲峰山高台寺),
is a temple of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism in Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto, the largest subtemple of the Kennin-ji branch.

The temple is nicknamed the maki-e temple." It also holds paintings, including one of Hideyoshi, as well as textiles, and a bronze bell with an inscription dating it to 1606.
