North Kawachi 33 Kannon Pilgrimage

North Kawachi 33 Kannon Pilgrimage should have been organized in the Edo Period (1603-1867), and it was popular in the period.  The 1885 Yodo River Deluge caused extensive damage to the southern areas of the river including those where the North Kawachi 33 Kannon Pilgrimage member temples are located.  The pilgrimage was revived in 1887 by Tsuda Genjiro (1814-1889).
