Nozaki Kannon (Jiganji)

大東市野崎2丁目7−1

4.1(751)

A Soto sect temple commonly known as Nozaki Kannon. The temple grounds offer a view of the Osaka Plain and are also known as the setting for the 'Nozaki pilgrimage,' a tradition that has continued since the Edo period.

History

It is said that the temple began when the monk Gyoji carved and enshrined an Eleven-Faced Kannon statue made of white birch. During the Heian period, the Lord of Eguchi relocated the temple to its current site and revived it in gratitude for recovery from a serious illness. The temple was completely destroyed by fire during the wars of the Muromachi period but was rebuilt in 1616 CE (Genwa 2) by the monk Seigen.

What visitors say

Located on the mid-slope of a mountain, the temple grounds guide visitors to a quiet space for prayer via a stone staircase. From the front of the main hall, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the Osaka Plain, with scenery that changes with the four seasons. Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp) are available, and while the temple is lively during festivals and events, it offers a calm environment for worship on weekdays.
