a temple where prayers are offered for the well-being of the Imperial Family and the peace of the country, sometimes an existing temple was claimed for this purpose later after its founding.

When an emperor decided to have a temple built with a certain vow to the deities, he usually entrusted a high priest with the effort to visit that region and supervise the construction.
The founder of a temple is called

. kaisan 開山 temple founder, "opening the mountain" .

The kaisan is usually the first head monk (juushoku 住職 jushoku) of this temple.

The hall to honor this priest is the
kaisandoo 開山堂 "Hall of the Founder".
