Kannon-do built on the cliff cape

This Rinzai sect temple is located at the tip of Cape Afuto, on the southern tip of the Numakuma Peninsula. The vermilion-painted Kannon Hall, which mysteriously blends in with the sparkling clear waters and rugged rock face, is widely known as one of the most beautiful sights in the Seto Inland Sea. This Kannon Hall was built by Mori Terumoto and is designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. It has long been known as a place of prayer for safe voyages, fertility, and easy childbirth.
