History

Kannouin thrives in Nishinagata, a sacred place filled with the compassionate love of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. Countless mothers have sought blessing here, their prayers for their children's safe growth answered with grace. The thousand hands of Kannon reach out to embrace all beings with tender care. This temple stands as a sanctuary for women seeking protection and blessing through motherhood's sacred journey.
