Lodging at Shokokuji


 According to the Shincho-ko ki, Nobunaga in 1574 stayed at Shokokuji Temple in Kyoto. I have visited Shokokuji many times. Also Ashikaga Yoshimasa's grave is located there too. The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga (p. 206)

"Nobunaga took up lodgings at the Shokokuji for the first time. He preferred a petition to the Throne regarding his desire for the Ranjatai perfume-wood kept at the Todaiji in the Southern Capital."  

Todaiji (Southern Capital) is Nara


Tenka no tame!
