Shinagawa-ji
品川区南品川３丁目５−１７
A temple of the Daigo school of Shingon Buddhism, it is the 31st station of the Edo 33 Kannon Pilgrimage and the first station of the Edo Six Jizos. It is known for its deep ties with the city of Geneva, Switzerland, and for the history of friendship and the return of its Buddhist bell.
History
Founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai, the temple complex was established by Ota Doga during the Daian era (806–1457 CE). After falling into ruin due to war, it was revived in 1652 CE (Jo 1) by the priest Kozon, who gave it its current name.
