Overseas travel: Jozankei's deep shrine, the secret temple of Kannon-do (岩戸観音堂)

#OverseasTravel

A great place to visit while traveling abroad is the Secret Kannon-do Temple ⭐️Iwato Kannon-do⭐️, located in Jozankei Onsen, a famous hot spring area in Sapporo, Hokkaido. This unique Buddhist shrine was built in 1936. More than just a religious facility, it's also steeped in the history of the area. It's said to have been built to commemorate the souls of those who perished during the construction of the road connecting Otaru and Jozankei, and to pray for traffic safety.
