Kumagaya-ji

The temple, as the seventh station of the sacred pilgrimage, has served countless devotees since ancient times. The copper Thousand-Armed Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva enshrined here is said to embrace all wishes with its thousand compassionate hands. During inauspicious times, many pilgrims come seeking divine protection and cleansing of misfortune. The autumn foliage that adorns the temple grounds adds to its serene beauty throughout the seasons.
