Sightseeing
Culture History
At the end of the Sasaya road at the east end of Namerikawa, there is a Honoki Jizoson statue on the roadside on the south side, which has been worshiped as Jizo-san for safe childbirth.
In the past, large magnolia trees were thriving, but repeated typhoons broke their branches.
Now, new magnolia trees planted by worshipers are growing bigger.
