Anaoji Temple

A historic temple believed to have been founded in 705 by Otomo no Komaro. The 21st station on the Saigoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage, the temple is visited by many worshipers. The “Rubbing Buddha” statue located on the temple grounds is believed to have been created some time from the Edo period onward. Enshrined in the main temple nave, it is said one will be cured of illness by rubbing the affected area first on the statue and then on one’s own body. There is also a two tier pagoda and a garden designated a Place of Scenic Beauty by the Kyoto government.
