Man'en-ji Temple
〒399-8305 長野県安曇野市穂高牧１８１２
A temple of the Shingon Toyosha school, known as the 26th station of the Shinano 33 Pilgrimage. The grounds feature a spring known as a 'famous water source of Azumino' and a Jizo Hall dedicated to the Jizo Bodhisattva, venerated for granting children.
History
The temple was founded when a Buddha statue emerged from a pond during the Shoki era (around 725 CE), prompting the construction of a hall to house it. It later underwent historical changes, including a revival attributed to Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, a donation of forest land by Minamoto no Yoshitsune, and a relocation to its current site by Ogisara Sadayoshi.

What visitors say
The beautiful grounds resemble a paradise, blooming with pear blossoms, mountain cherries, and azaleas. Visitors can climb stone steps from the parking lot or drive close to the temple using a nearby parking area. The grounds include a spring called 'Water of Life.' The main hall features a painting depicting the Pure Land, and the gentle expression of the Kannon statue is a notable characteristic.
