==History== Chōgaku-ji was built by Kūkai in 824. The temple's bell tower gate (rōmon) is the oldest in Japan. The gate was originally built in the Heian period when the temple was founded, and is the only building that remains of the originals at Chōgaku-ji. The upper portion of the gate was rebuilt between 1086 and 1184, and the lower portion was rebuilt between 1573 and 1614. The gate is in a Kibitsu-zukuri-style with a thin wood shingle roof.
