''Bamboo Temple Jizo-in'' in Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto City is nicknamed ''Bamboo Temple'' because the principal image is Jizo Bosatsu, which is said to prolong life and safe delivery, and is surrounded by a bamboo grove.
Jizo-in Temple was founded in 1367 during the period of the Northern and Southern Courts by Hosokawa Yoriyuki, who was a Kanrei of the Muromachi Shogunate. In the main hall, Jizo Bodhisattva, which is said to be made by Saicho, is enshrined, and is said to bring blessings of childbirth and safe childbirth.

Jizo-in Temple is popular as a healing power spot, with the pleasant sound of the bamboo grove and the sound of the bamboo swaying in the wind. In addition, many of the worshipers spend a quiet time strolling through the bamboo grove.
In addition, Jizo-in is said to bring blessings for children and safe childbirth, so it is a popular spot for women wishing to become pregnant and families raising children.
