Tennōji Temple

2024/06/15(土) 東京の古き良き時代を感じさせる天王寺は、谷中橋七福神巡りの中でも特に訪れる価値がある寺院です。毘沙門天を祀り、祈る者に十種福を授けるとされています。鎌倉時代から続くこの寺院は、江戸三富としても知られ、多くの参拝者で賑わいます。特に、谷中霊園に残る五重塔の跡地は、歴史を感じることができる特別な場所です。

印象的だったのは、大仏と非常に綺麗に掃除された清いお寺でした。

谷中橋七福神巡り 東京で最も歴史がある七福神めぐりの一つ、谷中橋七福神巡りは、江戸時代から続く新春開運の散策ルートです。7つの寺を巡るこのルートは、徒歩での巡礼に最適で、各寺院が独自の魅力を放ちます。特に新年の御朱印集めには多くの参拝者で賑わい、日本の伝統と文化を感じることができます。

Tennoji Temple, which evokes the good old days of Tokyo, is one of the most worthwhile temples to visit during the Yanakabashi Seven Lucky Gods Tour. It enshrines Bishamonten, who is said to bestow ten kinds of blessings on those who pray to him. This temple, which has been in existence since the Kamakura period (1185-1333), is also known as Edo San-Tomi and attracts many worshippers. The site of the five-story pagoda, which remains in Yanaka Cemetery, is a particularly special place where visitors can feel the history of the temple.

What impressed me was the Daibutsu (Great Buddha) and the very neat and clean temple.

Yanakabashi Shichifukujin pilgrimage One of the oldest pilgrimages to the Seven Gods of Good Fortune in Tokyo, the Yanakabashi Shichifukujin pilgrimage is a walking route for New Year's opening, dating back to the Edo period. 7 temples make up this route, ideal for a walking pilgrimage, and each temple exerts its own unique charm. The area is especially crowded with visitors to collect red seals for the New Year, allowing visitors to experience the traditions and culture of Japan.
