半田寺

Ippen Shonin, founder of the Ji-shu Buddhist sect, studied here in his youth and later returned in 1288 to dedicate his late father's precious sutras to the temple.

据传Hanta-ji创建于8世纪,距今已有1200多年的历史。

The temple once sprawled across the hillside with 36 monk cells and over 100 subsidiary temples, making it one of the largest religious complexes in the region before its decline.

Hanta-ji是四国遍路的寺院之一,与日本著名的多寺院佛教朝圣路线相连。
