Kaidanin Bell Tower

太宰府市観世音寺5丁目7−7

A historic Kaidanin (precept platform) established by Ganjin, with a history dating back to the Nara period.

History

It is said to be the place where the Tang monk Ganjin visited Dazaifu during the Nara period and performed the first precept conferral. Originally part of Kannon-ji Temple, it was one of the 'Three Great Precept Platforms in the World,' serving as the only Kaidanin in the Saikaido region. It became independent from Kannon-ji in the 16th year of Genroku (1703 CE) and currently survives as a branch temple of Myoshin-ji, a temple of the Rinzai sect.
