Virtual Old Edo 33 Kannon Pilgrimage

Under the reign of the Tokugawa Clan, the capital city, Edo, flourished, and so did various pilgrimages. In Edo alone, there used to be 20 copies of Saigoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage.  Old Edo 33 Kannon Pilgrimage was organized in 1668. Based on it, New Edo 33 Kannon Pilgrimage was reorganized in 1976, as many member temples had been abolished after the Meiji Restoration.  New Edo 33 Kannon Pilgrimage even includes #3 Dai-Kannon-ji and #5 Dai-Anraku-ji Temples, which were both established after the Meiji Restoration.

All things must pass; all worldly things are impermanent. (Kamo Chomei)
