The Kofukuji or Thomeizan Kofukuji (Japanese: 東明山興福寺, Tōmeizan Kōfuku-ji) is an Obaku Zen Buddhist temple established in 1624 in Nagasaki, Japan. It is an important cultural asset designated by the government.

Its Mazu Hall (Masu-do) or Bodhisattva Hall (Bosa-do) is one of the few temples of the Chinese sea goddess Mazu, the deified form of the medieval Fujianese shamaness Lin Moniang, located in Japan.
