Kōryū-ji(広隆寺) is a Shingon temple in Uzumasa, Ukyō Ward, Kyoto, Japan. The temple is also known by the names Uzumasa-dera(太秦寺) and Kadono-dera(葛野寺), and was formerly known as Hatanokimi-dera(秦公寺), Hachioka-dera(蜂岡寺) and Hōkō-ji(蜂岡寺). Kōryū-ji is said to be the oldest temple in Kyoto, having been constructed in 603 by Hata no Kawakatsu upon receiving a Buddhist statue from Prince Shōtoku. Fires in 818 and 1150 destroyed the entire temple complex, but it was rebuilt each time.
