Kanshuji

This is the head temple of the Shingon sect Yamakage school, which enshrines the Thousand-Armed Kannon as its principal image. It is said to have been founded by Emperor Daigo to mourn his mother. The temple is attractive because visitors can enjoy the scenery of each season, such as flowers such as cherry blossoms, wisteria, and iris, as well as wild ducks that visit the pond in winter.
