Jikaku Daishi Ennin (慈覺大師 圓仁), who is considered to have laid the foundations of Buddhism in Japan, receiving the title of Daishi (大師) for the first time in Japan, came to stay at Chishan Fahuayuan, which Jang-Bogo had established, as he was entering the Buddhist profession. Here, he prayed to the god in Chishan to help him spread the message of Buddhism, and he vowed that if his prayers were realized, he would build a temple to commemorate this.It was also at Chishan Fahuayuan that Ennin heard about Wutaishan from Seong-im (聖琳), a Silla monk, and this led to his full-fledged Buddhist activities in Tang. Even later, Ennin received unstinting support and devoted protection from countless Silla people living in Tang. After conducting Buddhist activities for 10 years using the maritime traffic network that Jang Bogo had established, Ennin safely concluded his activities and returned to Japan.The Memorial Stone of Jang Bogo, Ambassador of Cheonghaejin was erected in Hieizan Enryakuji by Wando county per the request of the Tendai sect in Japan (memorial ceremony held on January 13, 2002). This was an event that shed a new light on the relation between Jang Bogo and Ennin, but the reality is that it has not yet solidified its position.Ennin, who diligently tried to firmly establish the Tendai sect, was not able to fulfill his vows (AD 840) at Chishan Fahuayuan during his time, and requested that they be carried out through his will. This is the origin of Sekizan-zen'in (赤山禪院), which was built in AD 888 by Ennin's disciples who inherited his uncompleted vows, but as of now, no historical artifacts related to this can be found at Sekizan-zen'in.At Hieizan Enryakuji (比叡山 延曆寺), Sekizan-myōjinja (赤山明神社) (present Sekizan-gu), which was built by people who lived after Ennin, and which is located in front of Yokawa-chūdō (橫川中堂), which was established by Ennin in AD 848, is the only artifact that conveys this fact.This paper aims at investigating cultural heritage related to Jang Bogo inside the Tendai sect in Japan, and at providing status updates on this issue for its commercialization for tourism.
