Kasadera Kannon
A Shingon Sect temple. Also known as Tenrinzan Ryufukuji Temple. In 733, during the reign of Emperor Shomu, a Buddhist priest named Zenko Shonin found a piece of driftwood on Yobitsugi beach and carved it into an 11-faced Kannon statue. The statue was enshrined at this temple, which was called Komatsudera Temple at the time. On the temple site are Harusamezuka and Kasadera-Chidorizuka, which are sites connected with Basho, and a monument to Miyamoto Musashi.
