Aizen-in, Buddhist temple in Itano, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan.

Aizen-in functions as the Inner Sanctum of Konsen-ji Temple Number 3, featuring traditional Japanese Buddhist architectural elements and sacred spaces for meditation.

The temple traces its origins to the year 815 when Buddhist master Kūkai established it and carved the main image of Fudō Myōō.

The temple maintains its position as an essential stop along the Shikoku Pilgrimage route, connecting pilgrims to centuries of Buddhist traditions.

Visitors can reach the temple through local transportation networks and find basic overnight accommodations upon making appropriate arrangements with temple staff.

The temple grounds contain specific areas where the main mantra is chanted, creating patterns of sound that echo through the mountain location.
