Mitsugonji Temple, located on a hill in Ikeda-cho, Miyoshi City, is a historic ancient temple enveloped in silence with a fantastic view overlooking northern Tokushima Prefecture. Known as a temple associated with the Miyoshi clan, powerful local lords who once ruled the area, the grounds are dotted with buildings and stone monuments conveying the weight of history. In autumn, magnificent ginkgo and maple trees color the grounds, further enhancing the historical atmosphere. It is also an excellent point to overlook Mt. Kotsu, known as "Awa Fuji," allowing visitors to touch Japanese spiritual culture alongside fresh mountain air. This is a perfect place for travelers wanting to spend quiet time facing themselves in a tranquil temple atmosphere not overly commercialized.
