Jigen-in Temple (Kannon-ji Temple)

The temple is known to locals as “Kannon-ji”. It’s the second of the 28 prayer stations on the Katsuragi Shugen pilgrimage trail. The temple’s Kannon statue is believed to be the work of En no Gyoja himself and is usually concealed from public view. The Jizo-do hall next to the main hall used to be the Kannon-do hall in the olden days. Inside is a statue of the deity Jizo Bosatsu from the Tensho era (1573 to 1592). The temple bell is from the Genroku era (1688 to 1704).
