Virtual Miura 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #32 Kaizo-ji Temple

      Kaizo-ji Temple stands on a hill which overlooks the view of the Koajiro Bay, in whose caves the Miura Sea Forces hid their shock-troop boats.  In the middle of the 19th century, a tanka poem was composed for the temple:

The top of the hill overlooks the view 
With Mt. Fuji and the Pure Land
Placing themselves together in prayer.
     The temple was founded by Miura Yoshiatsu (1451-August 9, 1516) and his son, Yoshioki (1496-August 9, 1516).
