Located in Takehara's historic district, Jizo-do Hall serves as a guardian deity of the town, alongside Kodo Hall. Originally established before the Edo period, the current hall was rebuilt in 1927. It's a short walk from Chosei-ji Temple and near the former Kasai Residence. The hall is dedicated to Jizo, and the grounds feature stone monuments honoring contributors to Takehara's salt industry. A visit offers a glimpse into the town's rich history and cultural heritage. The hall is easily accessible while exploring the preserved streets of Takehara.
