Haseji (Hase Temple)
桜井市初瀬７３１−１
Located on the mid-slopes of Mount Hashiragami, this temple is known as the "Temple of Flowers" for its famous peonies. It is the 8th station of the Saikoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage and enshrines the Eleven-Faced Kannon as its principal image.
History
Believed to have been founded in the Nara period, it is the head temple of the Shugyosha branch of Shingon Buddhism. It has long been called the "Temple of Flowers." From the mid-Heian period onward, it attracted the devotion of the aristocracy, and from the medieval period onward, its popularity spread to the warrior class and commoners. It was revived in the 16th century by Kakuban.

What visitors say
The ascending corridors and staircases leading from the Niomon (Guardian Gate) are adorned with a variety of flowers that change with the seasons, with the hydrangeas in June being particularly spectacular. The stage of the main hall offers a stunning view, and special worship sessions are held where visitors can touch the feet of the principal image, the Eleven-Faced Kannon Bodhisattva. The temple grounds feature many stairs, so wearing comfortable shoes is recommended for your visit.
