I shall tell you of Kannonji Temple, which has been passed down for a long time in the land of Chichibu. This temple enshrines the Eleven-faced Kannon Bodhisattva, and its compassionate figure attracts the faith of many people who wish for safe childbirth, child-rearing, and academic success. The precincts, enveloped in tranquility, offer a peaceful time to visitors. The temple buildings, which evoke a sense of history, stand quietly in place, unwavering with the passage of time. Many people's wishes have likely been fulfilled in this place.
