History
Located on the mid-slope of Keizuka-yama, south of Fukushima Benten-yama, the temple is said to have been founded when Sakanoue no Tamuramaro enshrined a Thousand-Armed Kannon statue, attributed to the monk Giki, for the protection of the Tohoku region. Another tradition holds that it was founded by Tokuiti.

The temple is a hidden gem with beautiful seasonal flowers such as cherry blossoms, trilliums, camellias, and narcissus. During cherry blossom season, you can enjoy the sight of falling petals. The grounds feature large straw sandals, a statue of the Thunder God, and giant trees, with beautiful autumn foliage from the ginkgo trees. Advance reservations may be required to view the standing statue of Senju Kannon. Please note that the road leading to the free parking lot is narrow.
