In the secluded area of Ihara City in Okayama Prefecture lies the Unmarried Kannon Temple. As the name suggests, it enshrines a miraculous Kannon statue that is said to allow one to live a healthy and happy life without burdening a spouse, even in old age. Known as one of the largest stone Buddhas in Japan, it attracts many believers. There is also a trekking course behind the temple. Visitors can receive the spiritual power of the main statue as a skin protector by having their underwear blessed. It's a power spot that you won't forget once you visit!
