    A quiet temple in the forest. In the past, it was one of the three major sacred places in Japan lined up in Kumano and Yoshino.

    Visited by car. Turn the traffic light near the Family Mart Otsu Senmachi store on the street that passes through Shiga Onishimon-mae and just go up to the parking lot. There is an office facing the parking lot, and you can enter for 500 yen. According to Engi, it is an imperial edict temple of emperor gensho, which started in 722 when yasuzumi Daishi, who opened Kaga Hakusan, built the disease of 33 years old of emperor gensho as a reward for relying on the power of the law. In the past, the emperor of goshirakawa domain, gouda domain, Ogimachi domain, and so on were respected by successive emperors, and Japan ... lined up in Kumano domain Yoshino.

    Usually quiet mountain temple

    I visited by car because it was a day when the free shuttle bus did not operate. Even on weekends, it seems that there are few worshipers, and it was about 々 when worshipers who seemed to visit 33 places in Saigoku visited.

    "Daishido", which shows the Shingon sect temple, stood in front of the main hall and Fudodo when proceeding from the parking lot. Most worshipers went directly to the main hall, and fewer people visited Daishido. On the day of the worship, a free miso soup reception was held near Daishido, and I was able to warm up.

    "First Sound Law"

    Original Text

    I worshiped in accordance with the "Hatsukannon Hokai" on January 17th. On the same day, a free shuttle bus runs from Ishiyama Station, and I was able to worship by public transportation. The "Hatsukannon Hokai" held in the main hall can also be participated by general worshipers, and was able to participate at the recommendation of the staff. I was able to experience a characteristic memorial service where the burial mound was blown along the way. In addition, miso soup was served free of charge in the precincts, and I was able to warm my body.

    12 Panyu Suo Xiguo の Iwajian Temple

    Original Text

    I went to Iwamaji Temple as part of my visit to 33 places in Saigoku. It was a quiet temple in the forest, and I felt very calm. I think it's easy to get there by using a car rental or car sharing. We also used car sharing this time. There are buses, but there are few flights and it seems to be quite crowded.
