Virtual Iruhi Bando 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #1 Nyonin-do Hall
According to tradition, in 673, Jikun (691-777), a priest of Kofuku-ji Temple, enshrined Thousand-Armed Sahasrabhuja in Mt. Toki, and later, in 770, Priest Dochu founded Jiko-ji Temple there. The place name Toki is said to come from a Buddhist meal. As Jiko-ji Temple was prohibited to women, Nyonin-do Hall, namely Women's Hall, was built halfway up to the temple.
