Nyoirin-ji, Buddhist temple in Ogori, Japan.
Nyoirin-ji temple features stone statues of Jizo along its entrance path, leading to a main hall housing the sacred Nyoirin Kannon statue.
Founded in 729 under Empress Koken's order, the temple underwent reconstruction in the Edo period after a fire destroyed the original structures in 1586.
The temple holds the Wind Chime Festival from June to September, displaying 2,500 colorful wind chimes where visitors write their wishes on paper strips.
Located 15 minutes on foot from Nishitetsu Misawa Station or 10 minutes by car from Ogori Interchange, the temple receives 30,000 visitors annually.
The temple grounds contain over 5,000 frog figurines, initiated in 1992 when a former priest brought a jade frog from China.
