History
Named after Kannonmachi itself, this temple dedicated to Kannon, the Bodhisattva of Mercy, has long been favored by women seeking safe childbirth and blessings of fertility. Kannon's compassionate hands reach out to embrace all who suffer and hope. The white fox protects the dreams of mothers and their unborn children with tender care.
