Anzaki Temple

Anzaki Temple [劲红・方; あんざき・ほら] is a daihora or grand temple located in the city of Anzaki in Arami Prefecture. Built by Emperor Chōyū in the late 1400s, the Anzaki Temple is home to over 500 different nendo, each crafted for lesser royalty such as relatives, concubines or close friends of Kantonese Emperors. Annually it can receive up to 200,000 visitors a year. 
For centuries Anzaki Temple has been the starting point of the famous Taiyu Kannō (Taiyu Pilgrimage), which follows a trail through Arami and Hamae Prefectures up to the slopes of the largest mountain in the Taiyu Alps, Mount Hyōjō.
