等々力不動尊は、不動明王を祀る関東三十六不動霊場の第17番札所です。

等々力不動尊は真言宗智山派に属しています。

The temple's name comes from the roaring sound of Fudo-no-Taki Waterfall—'todoroki' literally means 'roaring.' The waterfall is guarded by a deity and two dragons said to purify its waters.

The valley creates a unique microclimate that's about 3°C cooler than the surrounding city, making it a popular escape for Tokyoites during hot summers—a rare natural air-conditioned oasis in Tokyo.
