Located on top of Mt. Shosha at an elevation of 371 meters, Engyo-ji Temple is an ancient temple of the Tendai sect, founded in 966 by Shoku Shonin, a Buddhist priest. It is also the 27th temple of the Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage. Once you get off the ropeway, you will find yourself in a world of deep mountain valleys. The temple is home to many national and prefectural cultural properties, such as the Maniden temple hall, which resembles Kiyomizu-dera Temple in Kyoto, and the Dai-kodo (large lecture hall) and Jikido (dining hall), which are Important Cultural Properties.
