Noyama Kannonji
篠栗町萩尾227−4
A special head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect and the 16th station of the Shonoku Shikoku 88 Pilgrimage. It is also renowned as a scenic spot for seasonal flowers and autumn foliage.
History
Originating from a single statue of Senju Kannon (Thousand-Armed Kannon) enshrined since ancient times, it has been passed down as Noyama Kannonji. In the 6th year of Tenpo (1835 CE), 88 pilgrimage stations were vowed in Shonoku at the call of the nun Jinyo, and it became the 16th station after being founded by Fujiki Fujisuke and others.

What visitors say
Known as one of the top autumn foliage spots in Fukuoka Prefecture, it is particularly famous for the spectacular red leaves of the Doudan Tsutsuji (Japanese Pieris). Crowds are heavy during the Autumn Foliage Festival, so visiting early in the morning or checking routes to avoid traffic jams is recommended. The temple grounds feature many slopes and stairs, so caution is required, but visitors can enjoy strolling around the food trucks and nearby temples.
