Japan Shikoku Pilgrimage - Third Temple, Kinsenji Temple
#2023TravelWish #OverseasTravel #JapanTravel #Japan Attractions
First time to Japan🇯🇵 Shikoku Tokushima, the most famous place here is to travel all over Shikoku. Among them, the third temple, Jinquan Temple, is the Shingon Sect Temple in Tokushima Prefecture. The main deity serves Shakyamuni Buddha🤲🏻.
The main hall of Jinquan Temple and Guanyin Hall are both red and white designs, very grand and beautiful. It turns out that the name Jinquan Temple has a story🔖
It is said that when the great master dug a well to solve the water shortage, the well mouth actually gushes out golden yellow water, we all believe that it brings longevity spiritual water 💦, and this temple is also named Jinquan Temple, very meaningful ❤️ If you see your face in the golden well, then it means longevity! Must try ✨
There is also a golden Jizo Bodhisattva, also called North-facing Jizo, who specializes in improving and treating pain above the neck ✨ Just caress Jizo's body, the place you want to improve will be effective! Worth a try!
In 2023 I hope to 😌fly to Japan🇯🇵 to travel🧳

I am a retired Aussie guy who likes to travel for a few months each year, mostly but not exclusively in Asia. I prefer to travel slowly, by bus and ferry, rather than by plane and fast train.
I like staying in hostels, dorms and capsules for the economics and for the opportunity to meet interesting people.
