No.74 Iōzan Tahōin Koyamaji
Nestled in greenery, this modest temple reflects Buddhist ideals of inner beauty and simplicity. The principal image, Yakushi Nyorai, is believed to be carved by Kūkai. A cave enshrining Bishamonten adds depth, and visitors enjoy finding sixteen hidden rabbit motifs in the roof tiles—an interplay of gentle fun and devotion.
I like to travel, and whenever I have time, I walk all over the place. He is particularly knowledgeable about the Shikoku Pilgrimage and enjoys talking about the temples and the journey. I like talking to people and value encounters.

Johannes comment
Cozy garden temple (‘Armored Mountain’) with Bishamonten okuno-in on grounds. Large rest area. Final quiet stage before Kobo Daishis birthplace at Temple 75.
