    The temple was originally founded by Kōbō Daishi on the site where he brought forth a curative hot springs in the valley of Anraku, one mile north of its present location. Legend states that Kōbō Daishi struck his staff into the ground and brought forth the hot spring and the people then built it into a bath with curative powers.

    Kōbō Daishi also carved the statue of Yakushi Nyorai which serves as the honzon. The temple was burned to the ground in a battle long ago and was rebuilt at its present location. The present hondō was built of concrete after being destroyed by a fire in 1955.

    In the 19th century a Chinese who had been shipwrecked on the island dedicated a huge wooden sign inscribed with the name of the honzon in gratitude for his having been saved. The temple preserves an image of Miroku Bosatsu, dated 1126.

ABOUT STORY

The sixth temple is Anraku-ji (安楽寺).

The distance from the previous temple (7th) is only 1km.

 

The entrance to Anraku-ji. Making a slightly unusual gate like the previous temple.

 

This is the main hall of Anraku-ji. Yakushi Nyorai is enshrined.

It is a pity that the entire main hall cannot be seen due to the roof of the passage built in front of the main hall.

 

Next is the hall with an enshrined statue of Kobo Daishi.

The weather was nice and I felt good, so I was able to sing the Heart Sutra with great feelings.

 

The temple also had a garden like a Japanese garden.

 

A sign for pilgrims was erected on the road outside the temple.
