Kannon-ji, Buddhist temple in Tokushima, Japan
The temple features a main hall dedicated to Senju Kannon, with traditional wooden architecture and garden spaces surrounding the structure.
Founded during Emperor Shomu's reign between 701 and 756, Kannon-ji underwent reconstruction in the Manji era through support from the Hachisuka clan.
The temple maintains its position as number 16 on the Shikoku 88 temple pilgrimage route, drawing regular visits from Buddhist practitioners.
Visitors can participate in Buddhist ceremonies and explore the temple grounds, which include areas for prayer, meditation, and religious observances.
The temple survived destruction during the Tensho era conflicts and stands as a testament to the religious preservation efforts of Japanese Buddhism.
