Awashimado is a building, next to the five-story pagoda, which, for a few years was home to the statue of Guanyin, after the main hall was destroyed by the air raids. Awashimado dates to the early 18th century, and is dedicated to women.
An interesting fact: opposite the Awashimado shrine is an old stone lantern. It’s said that if a child passes under it, he or she will never suffer from worms or smallpox.
