History
Rokujizo-ji in Rokutanda-cho, Mito, is graced by six Jizo Bodhisattvas who steadfastly protect the children who come before them. The profound love of parents and their deepest prayers for their children's wellbeing concentrate here. I have witnessed countless times when parental devotion reaches the hearts of those young ones. This temple is a crystallization of love itself.
