Seisui-ji, Buddhist temple in Tokushima, Japan
Seisui-ji sits on elevated ground with traditional wooden buildings arranged across the site to accommodate prayer and ceremonial functions. The layout features connected pathways and distinct structures that show how the space has been developed to serve its religious purpose over time.
Founded in 1632, the temple emerged during a period when Buddhism was spreading throughout the Tokushima region. This founding reflects the religious expansion that shaped the area's spiritual life during that century.
The temple is part of the Awa Chichibu Kannon pilgrimage route and the Tokushima Shichifukujin circuit, both important to local worship practices. These connections link it to broader spiritual traditions that visitors can observe throughout the region.
The temple sits on elevated ground, so visitors should be prepared for stairs and uneven paths as they explore the grounds. Visiting on quieter days allows you to experience the space without interfering with ceremonial activities that happen regularly.
The temple attracts regular pilgrims following established routes that have been traveled for centuries by local worshippers. This ongoing pilgrimage tradition keeps alive a form of religious practice deeply rooted in the community.
