Description

Hasedera’s Kannon Hall enshrines an Eleven-Faced Kannon Bosatsu affectionately known as Hase Kannon. Although the monumental wooden Kannon stands more than nine meters tall, its presence does not merely overwhelm; it also seems to gently envelop worshippers. The bright temple grounds near the sea combine with the peace of Kannon devotion, creating a Buddhist spot with both Kamakura’s approachable warmth and a sense of solemn grandeur.
