History

Byakko

Jizo-in is a temple with a quiet and serene atmosphere. Its principal image, Jizo Bosatsu, is believed to grant benefits for child-rearing, longevity, and recovery from illness, attracting many devotees. Silence pervades the temple grounds, allowing visitors to spend time in peace. This temple, cherished by the local community for a long time, continues to be a spiritual refuge for people today. I momentarily forgot the passage of time amidst its tranquility.
