[Wakayama] The first temple of the 33 Kannon temples of the Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage

Visited in April 2023
*Seiganto-ji Temple

The first temple of the Thirty-Three Kannon Temples of the Western Region, Nachisan Seiganto-ji Temple, along with Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine, is a center of Kumano faith and attracts a lot of faith😊

It is said that the beginning was when the monk Naked Priest, who came to Nachi from India during the reign of Emperor Nintoku, felt the presence of Kannon Bodhisattva at Nachi Falls and built a hermitage at the current location✨

The Chozuya is said to be a water of longevity that will make you live longer if you drink it😊
