Daizen-ji, Buddhist temple in Susaki, Japan
Daizen-ji stands on a hill overlooking the Susaki Bay, featuring a primary Buddha statue of Kobo Daishi, known locally as Futatsu Daishi.
The temple was established in 815 when monk Kukai visited Susaki during his pilgrimage and conducted prayers for people who perished at sea.
This temple participates in multiple Shikoku pilgrimages, including the 88 temples circuit, the 20 exceptional temples, and the 33 Kannon temples routes.
From Tosa Shinjo railway station, visitors can reach the temple grounds within a 5-minute walk through the local neighborhood.
The August festival at Daizen-ji includes performances with a paper dragon that emits smoke, transforming the surrounding streets into a pedestrian celebration.
