Tokoshinai kannnondo : gankisan shrine

ADDRESS: 78 Jukoshinai Sarusawa, hirosaki-city, Aomori-prefecture

“Founded in 796. Originally called Gankiyama Saihoji Kannonin. It is said that it was originally the lower shrine of Iwakiyama Shrine, the first shrine of Tsugaru Province. The two large cedar trees over 1,000 years old on the left side of the main hall are a masterpiece. You can feel the indescribable warmth and godliness in the sunlight coming in between the two trees. “
