In 1587 Toyotomi Hideyoshi (豊臣秀吉) relocated Kankikō-ji (観喜光寺) and its shrine to the eastern end of Nishiki Market (錦市場), a street of shops and restaurants familiarly known as "Kyoto's Kitchen" since Heian times.

The water, drawn from 30m underground since 1960 (when urban development began to interfere with the water table), remains at a constant temperature of 17-18 degrees.
