Taisan-ji, Buddhist pilgrimage temple in Kamiita, Japan

Taisan-ji stands at the beginning of the Shikoku 36 Fudō pilgrimage route, featuring traditional architectural structures including Shōrō-mon and Kairō buildings.

The temple complex contains multiple buildings from the Edo period, including the Hondō from mid-era and the Daishidō constructed in 1863.

The temple enshrines Senjū Kannon as its main deity and maintains the practices of Shingon Buddhism through traditional ceremonies and rituals.

The temple underwent significant renovation work in 1985 to maintain its structures and continues to welcome both religious practitioners and visitors.

A bronze canister discovered at Taisan-ji containing documents from 1126 has received designation as an Important Cultural Property of Japan.
