Yasaka-dera, Buddhist temple in Sabase, Kaiyo, Japan
The temple complex includes several buildings with traditional wooden architecture, prayer halls, and a pagoda connected by an underground tunnel.
Established in 780, Yasaka-dera underwent multiple reconstructions and transformed from a small hermitage into a full temple complex during the 20th century.
The temple maintains its status as the fourth Bekkaku temple of the Shikoku pilgrimage, drawing spiritual practitioners throughout the year.
Visitors can reach the temple grounds through a two-minute walk from JR Sabase station or by using the dedicated parking area.
The temple carries the name Saba Daishi Honbou, referencing the legend of Kobo Daishi bringing a dried mackerel back to life in nearby waters.
