Kiyotaki-ji, Buddhist temple in Tosa, Japan
The main hall of Kiyotaki-ji features Chinese-style gables and stands alongside a bell tower, with the Daishidō hall positioned to the left.
Priest Gyōki established this temple in 723 AD, creating a statue of Yakushi Buddha and naming the complex Eizanmitsu-in at that time.
The temple contains a Mizuko-Jizō hall where people conduct prayers and rituals related to miscarriages and deceased children according to Buddhist traditions.
Visitors reach the temple buildings by climbing a long staircase through the Niō gate, followed by additional steps leading to different structures.
A spring emerged when Kūkai struck an altar with a golden staff after 17 days of prayer, forming a mirror-like pond that influenced the temple name.
