Mama Kannon, Buddhist temple in Komaki, Japan.
The temple features a central statue of an eleven-faced, thousand-armed Kannon goddess enshrined within the main prayer hall at its grounds.
Established in 1492 on Mount Komaki, the temple was relocated to its current location during the 16th century under the direction of lord Oda Nobunaga.
Women seeking maternal blessings purchase breast-shaped talismans and votive tablets to hang on trees throughout the temple grounds as offerings.
Visitors can access the temple by taking the subway from Nagoya Station to Komaki Station, followed by a 25-minute walk to the temple entrance.
The temple includes a mechanical Buddha statue that dispenses water resembling breast milk, used by visitors for ritual hand cleansing ceremonies.
