"Mirokuzan Kannonin Daihoji" was founded in 701, the longest history among Goto temples, and the place name where Daihoji is located is called "Tamanoura Town Taiho".

You have to go on a narrow road to the port city, so be careful when driving. There were many buildings on the premises, and further on, it seemed that there was even Okunoin. I think it's interesting to put it in one of the tourist lures.
