History
This Kamijuku Kannon-do enshrines Kannon, which has been passed down in the land of Hadano since ancient times. Its quiet and tranquil atmosphere calms the hearts of visitors. It is particularly said to have benefits for safe childbirth and child-rearing, and many women and families with children visit to pray. For a long time, it has served as a spiritual anchor for the local people and a place to pray for the health and happiness of mothers and children. If you quietly join your hands in prayer, you will surely receive warm blessings.
