Enichizan Kannonji Daihoin Temple, commonly known as ``Tsu Kannon.'' One of Japan's three Kannon statues, which has a history of over 1,300 years and was loved by many military commanders, is actually located in daimon, TsuCity! A power spot that brings blessings such as fulfillment of wishes and abundant harvest. We will report on hidden spots in TsuCity that you will definitely want to visit, from historical charm to information on nearby shops.
Enichizan Kannonji, commonly known as Tsukannon, has a history of over 1,300 years and was once patronized by Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the sixth Shogun of the Muromachi Shogunate, Yoshinori Ashikaga. One of the oldest temples of the Shingon sect.
In fact, it is not well known, but it is counted as one of Japan's three Kannon temples, along with Sensoji Temple in Asakusa and Osu Kannon in Nagoya!
This stone is called a ``Nadeishi'' and is said to bring good health and peace.
It is said that if you rub this stone on the affected area with your hand, the area will get better!
It is made of copper and dates from 1836. On the left side, there is an explanation about the cultural properties held.
On this day, a summer festival was being held, and the place was crowded with many people.
The fair is usually held on the 18th of every month, so we recommend going on that day!
And what you can see in the back is the five-storied pagoda.
Kokotsu Kannon is the only pagoda in Mie Prefecture that has a five-storied wooden pagoda. Let's take a closer look!
This is the main hall. It is a beautiful vermilion color, just like the gate.
At that time, it was said that one out of every five people would come to worship here, as it was considered a key spot for Okage-mairi!
The one on the left is "Baku Jizo"
The one on the right is "Yoraku Jizo."
First, rub the same spot on the Bakuku Jizo where you feel pain, then place your hands on the Yoraku Jizo, hoping that it will make your wish come true.
It is said that it will be easier to have your wishes heard by the Buddha!
"On Arorikya Sowaka"
When recited for the third time, your wishes such as fulfillment of your wishes, safety at sea, and a good harvest will be granted.
By the way, Tsu Kannon has been certified as the first shrine of the ``Ise no Tsu Shichifukujin'', which includes seven shrines and temples in TsuCity.
It is said that if you visit first, your wishes will be more easily heard.
Many Buddha statues are enshrined here.
It is a replica, and the Shokanzeon Bodhisattva is enshrined behind the door.
A special opening ceremony is held only once a year.
It is said to be the main Buddha of Amaterasu Omikami, and so many worshipers visited during the Edo period that it was sung, ``Ise is in Tsu, Tsu is in Ise.''
There are various types of wishes depending on the wishes, such as ``I pray for your recovery from illness or injury,'' ``I hope you meet a wonderful person,'' and ``Success in business.''
This is "longevity candy".
I'm looking forward to tasting it.
It's nice to experience the different atmosphere depending on the season.
Let's stop by.
A variety of Japanese-style goods were on sale, and the staff were warm and welcoming.
This shopping street has a nostalgic atmosphere that makes you feel at ease. It looks like it would be fun to take a walk around ♪
There are many gourmet spots around TsuCity Kannon, such as Heiji rice crackers, Hachimitsu-Man, Toraya's fruit daifuku, etc., so we recommend going on a gourmet tour when you come to Tsu Kannon.
