    Notes & Remarks

    ■ Rokkaku-do Hall The current Rokkaku-do is a work of the Edo period and houses the Yamashina Mawajizo. At first, the statue of Rokujizo, which was located in Fushimi Rokujizo, was worshiped by Emperor Goshirakawa, and prayed for the eradication of evil diseases, the safety of traffic on the streets, and the welfare of the common people by the hands of Kiyomori Taira and Nishi Kobo. Hexagon-do was built at the entrance of each highway and was divided one by one (1157). ■ Jizo Bosatsu statue In 852, it is one of the Kyoroku Jizo-sons made by Takamura Onono with a large cherry tree at Mt. Kohata. Once every 100 years, there is a custom of remaking makeup and it looks new, but the times are said to be from the Heian period, and Jizo-son, who has a height of about 3m, conveys the style of the time well. Common names are called Yamashina Majizo, Yamashina Jizo, and Shino Miyajizo. ■ Cemimaru and Imperial Prince Hitoyasu memorial tower It is a treasure engraving tower that is said to be from the North and South Dynasties. Imperial Prince Hitoyasu is the fourth palace of Emperor Ninmyo (810-850). Since the Heian period, the biwa priests have gathered here and memorialized Imperial Prince Hitoyasu in February and his mother Kachiko Tachibanano in June. It is because of the protection. This gathering of biwa teachers continued until 1871, but it is thought that in a long time their ancestors, Imperial Prince Hitoyasu and Semimaru, were identified with this memorial tower as the axis. . ■ Wells In the past, it was used as a drinking place for cattle and horses for transportation on the Tokaido (or highways). The stone set is engraved with the words "Bunsei Yomi June Yoshi, Osaka Nagoya Kanazawa Oshu Joshu Seiryo Naka", and you can imagine the lively traffic at that time. ■ Chasho There is a tea pot that served tea to the people of transportation and worship, and behind it is a four-body stone Buddha, which is said to be a work of the Kamakura period.
