History

Byakko

This temple has been gathering the faith of local people since ancient times as a Kannon of easy childbirth and child-rearing. I have memories of being enveloped by the warm atmosphere of this temple when I was a child. Although its founding is unknown, many women have visited to pray for easy childbirth throughout its long history. It is particularly said to have benefits for child-rearing, attracting many mothers. The Kannon statue standing in the quiet precincts soothes the hearts of visitors.
