Owari Thirty-three Kannon


The Owari Thirty-three Kannon (尾張三十三観音?, Owari Sanjūsan Kannon) are a collection of Buddhist temples in western Aichi Prefecture, Japan, all dedicated to the bodhisattva Avalokitesvara (Kannon). The name is derived from Owari Province, the former name for the area. The list was created in 1955.

The Owari Thirty-three Kannon combine with the Mino Thirty-three Kannon in Gifu Prefecture, the Mikawa Thirty-three Kannon in eastern Aichi Prefecture and Toyokawa Inari to form the Tōkai Hundred Kannon.
