| A temple hall where the Buddhist deity *Jizou 地蔵 (Sk. Ksitigarbha) is enshrined. He is a bodhisattva dedicated to rescuing souls trapped in realms of evil. He is especially popular as the protector of children and the souls of dead chilcren. There is no established style of building to house a statue of Jizou. For example: A hexagonal (8.73m per side) building *rokkaku endou 六角円堂 at Choukouji 長光寺( 1510), Aichi prefecture is a jjzoudou. The Sanbutsuji Jizoudou 三仏寺地蔵堂, Muromachi period, in Tottori prefecture is 3×4 bays (6.33 ×7.92m), and is constructed in an overhang style kake-zukuri 懸造. It is identical to the *monjudou 文殊堂 at the same temple. The Shoufukuji Jizoudou 正福寺地蔵堂 (1407) in Tokyo, is an excellent example of a typical 5×5 bay (8.12 ×8.12m) Zen style *zenshuuyou 禅宗様, building. The Houryuuji Jizoudou 法隆寺地蔵堂 is a small 3×3 bay (5.13×5.13m) bay hall in wayou style *wayou 和様. The Shin'yakushiji Jizouodu 新薬師寺地蔵堂 Kamakura period, Nara, is a 1×1 bay hall (3.05×3.05m) in ｗayou style. The Entakuji Jizoudou 塩沢寺地蔵堂, Muromachi period. Yamanashi prefecture is a 3×4 bay (6.36×7.27m) structure with a mixture of Zen and wayou styles. These six Jizou halls are designated as important cultural properties. | ||||||
