==History==<br />
Sennyū-ji was founded in the early [[Heian period]].{{sfn|Ponsonby-Fane|1956|p=113}} According to one tradition, it was founded as {{nihongo|Senyū-ji|仙遊寺}} in 855 at the former mountain villa of [[Fujiwara no Otsugu]].<ref name="Overview">{{cite web|script-title=ja:概略|url=http://www.mitera.org/outline/|access-date=8 December 2017|publisher=Sennyū-ji|trans-title=Overview|language=Japanese}}</ref> According to another tradition, this temple was a reconstruction of an earlier temple, {{nihongo|Hōrin-ji|法輪寺}}, which had been founded by [[Kōbō-Daishi]] in the [[Tenchō]] era (824–834).<ref name="budtrav"/> The major buildings in Sennyū-ji were reconstructed and enlarged in the early 13th century by the monk Tsukinowa Shunjō.<ref name="Overview"/> The temple was enlarged by Priest Shunjo in 1218, and the large temple buildings were built in the contemporary Chinese style of the [[Song dynasty]].<ref name="kyoto.travel">{{cite web | url=https://kyoto.travel/en/shrine_temple/181.html | title=Sennyu-ji Temple }}</ref> Priest Shunjo traveled to China during the Song dynasty to study Buddhism.<ref name="kyoto.travel"/><br />

[[Emperor Go-Horikawa]] and [[Emperor Shijō]] were the first to be enshrined in an Imperial mausoleum at Sennyū-ji. It was called ''[[Tsukinowa no misasagi]].{{sfn|Ponsonby-Fane|1959|p=422}}<ref name=Genji>{{cite web |url=http://www.taleofgenji.org/sennyuji.html |title=Sennyu-ji Temple, Kyoto |website=www.taleofgenji.org}}</ref><br />

==Art==<br />
Sennyū-ji's large ''nehan-zu'' painting depicts Buddha on his death bed. This massive image (8 meters x 16 meters) is the largest in Japan. The image at nearby [[Tōfuku-ji]] is the second largest of its kind in Japan, measuring 7 meters x 14 meters. Both images are only rarely displayed, most recently in 2003 for three days only.<ref>[http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20030309k1.html "Kansai: Who -- What: Giant Buddhas shown for three days only,"] ''Japan Times Online.''
