蓮まつり

Reviewed : 2016.07.18

住宅の中を抜けると大きな古いお寺があるお堂も３つありお正月には鐘が鳴り響くであろう立派に釣鐘堂もある神戸市垂水区最古のお寺でその歴史の深さが感じられる今は蓮が綺麗に咲き、蓮酒やおうどんスイカのおもてなしがありましたお堂で静かに心を落ち着かせるのにはとても素敵なところです
創建１２００年超の素晴らしい高野山真言宗寺院です

神戸１３仏霊場の第一番霊場です。本尊、阿弥陀如来は重文指定を受けています。長い参道の両側の原生林は兵庫県指定の保護林にもなっています。かつての大寺院ですが現在では６つ程度の堂宇だけが残っています。ここは「子授け信仰」でも有名です。今回の１３仏霊場巡拝の中では前半の最後の参拝寺としてここで一応、打ち止め。残りは又、来月に。

家族で初詣に行ってきました。境内は混み合ってなくのんびりとお参りできました。周辺は階段と坂が多いので夜のお参りは足下にご注意下さい
