== History ==
Tōji-in was founded at the foot of Mount Kinugasa in 1341 by Takauji himself in fulfillment of a vow.〔Keene (2005:2)〕 He did so under the guidance of famous Zen teacher, calligraphist, poet and garden designer Musō Soseki, who created the Zen gardens and ponds of the temple.〔 Tōji-in later became the Ashikaga dynasty's funeral temple and all fifteen of the Ashikaga shoguns are buried here.〔〔Two different graves bear Ashikaga Takauji's name. The second, which contains a strand of his hair, lies in Kamakura's Chōju-ji. Chōju-ji was converted into Takauji's ''bodaiji'' by his son, Kantō Kubō Ashikaga Motouji. For details, see the article Chōju-ji〕 The temple's name was later chosen as one of Takauji's two posthumous names, .〔 (The other is Chōju-inden, from the name of Takauji's second ''bodaiji''. See footnote.) Tōji-in was number one of the Kyoto Jissetsu, the temples immediately below the Kyoto Gozan within the Five Mountain System nationwide network of Zen temples.〔
Because of its association with the Ashikaga, believed by the Emperor's supporters to be traitors because they had usurped imperial power, during the Meiji restoration the temple sustained some damage. In recent years the temple has been restored to increase its appeal as a tourist attraction.〔
