Midoshi-ji
上板町瀬部１２４８
A temple of the Daigo branch of the Shingon sect, it is also known as Butou-zan and Gyokurin-in. It is counted among several sacred sites, including the first station of the Twenty Special Pilgrimage Sites of Shikoku.
History
It is said to have been founded around the 6th century by the monk Saihan as the first Buddhist training ground in Awa Province. In the early Heian period, Kukai visited the area and oversaw its relocation to the current site, the development of the temple complex, and the enshrinement of a Thousand-Armed Kannon statue. In 1184 CE (Juei 3), Minamoto no Yoshitsune performed a prayer for victory. During the Sengoku period, there is a legend that Shichijō Kanenaka prayed here and gained superhuman strength.
