Amidaji Temple
It is affectionately known as "Ono's Amida-san" and is famous as a temple for praying for safe childbirth.
It is said that the temple was founded over 1,200 years ago when Empress Komyo, wife of Emperor Shomu, was so moved by the safe and easy delivery of her child thanks to the light of Amida Buddha that she enshrined the statue of Amida Buddha at this temple as a guardian deity for safe childbirth.As a result, this temple is now famous as a place to pray for safe childbirth, and is bustling with worshippers who come to receive belly bands.
