Kōfuku-ji or Tōmeizan Kōfuku-ji[1] (Japanese: 東明山興福寺, Tōmeizan Kōfuku-ji) is a Buddhist temple of the Ōbaku school of Zen established in 1624 in Nagasaki, Japan. It is an important cultural asset designated by the government.
Its Mazu Hall (Masu-do) or Bodhisattva Hall (Bosa-do)[2] is one of the few temples located in Japan of the Chinese sea goddess known as Mazu, the deified form of the medieval Fujianese shamaness Lin Moniang (Chinese: 林默孃).
