History

In 815, Kūkai buried a jewel at the summit of Mt. Shiromine (336m), dug a well, and prayed for the salvation of all living beings. Later, Chishō Daishi saw the spritual light given off by the jewel, carved a statue of Senju Kannon, and officially founded this temple. The tomb of Emperor Sutoku is located here.
