- Established: 1335, Emperor Go-Daigo
- Japanese: 宝戒寺 (houkai-ji)
Hôkai-ji is a Tendai Buddhist temple in Kamakura, founded by Emperor Go-Daigo in 1335. It was built to replace the Hôjô clan's family temple, Tôshô-ji, following the 1333 siege of Kamakura and destruction of the Hôjô clan's hold on power, i.e. the fall of the Kamakura shogunate. The temple was completed in 1335, on the site of the Hôjô clan's mansion.
Hôkai-ji is also the location of one of the Seven Lucky Gods of Kamakura - Bishamonten.
