Virtual Tama Aqueduct Saigoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #4 Ogawa-an Temple

 

     Inogata Ogawa Tomb was built with a stone chamber in a cave in the latter half of the 7th century.  In the 13th century, the mound, or precisely the cave, was used to store a sutra.  Presumably, a hermitage was built to station a caretaker.

     The building was abolished sometime after the Meiji Restoration.  Where has its Avalokitesvara statue gone?
