Daikannon-ji (Great Kannon Temple)

〒103-0013 東京都中央区日本橋人形町1丁目18−9

4.0(213)

A temple of the Seikanon-shu sect located in Chuo Ward, Tokyo, enshrining an iron-cast head of the Bodhisattva Kannon as its main image, which is designated as a Tangible Cultural Property by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.

History

Founded in 1878, this temple of the Seikanon-shu sect enshrines an iron-cast head of the Holy Kannon Bodhisattva excavated from the new Shojisoji temple in Kamakura. The temple's origins trace back to the construction of a temporary hall in 1874 after the image was moved to Tokyo during the Meiji era. In 1950, the temple changed its affiliation from the Tendai sect to the Seikanon-shu sect in connection with the founding of the new branch of Sensoji.

What visitors say

Located within walking distance of Ningyocho Station, the temple is situated on the second floor of a building, making it difficult to find from the street. The grounds feature statues of the Vimalakirti Bodhisattva and the Horse-Head Kannon, and the main hall is impressively constructed. The temple office accepts requests for Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp) and offers a Vimalakirti victory amulet.
