Introduction to Yatadera temple

The monk Mankei, who founded Yatadera temple, saw Ksitigarbha saving the suffering souls of the dead in hell. It is said that the principal image of Ksitigarbha was carved based on that image.

For this reason, it is believed that this temple will take on people’s suffering and protect them from evil.
