Ryushoji Temple is located near JR Nishi Gifu station. About a five minute walk. This temple was important because just before Nobunaga marched to Kyoto in 1568, the soon to be shogun, Ashikaga Yoshiaki lodged here.
Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga "On Eiroku 11, Seventh Month, 25th day, Nobunaga having sent Wata Iga no Kami, Fuwa Kawachi no Kami (Mitsuharu), Murai Minbu, and Shimada Tokoro no Suke as envoys to Echizen to welcome the kubo, Yoshiaki made his progress to the Ryushoji, a temple located in Nishi-no-sho, Mino Province."
Nobunaga no tame!
