History (Origin)
Jyokokuji Buddhist Temple is formally called as Hankei-san Sanbutsu-in Jyokokuji Temple and is located along Minami Kaisho-cho street in Jinaimachi town. The temple belongs to Yuuzuu Nenbutsu Buddhism sect and a subordinate temple of the headquarters Dainenbutsu Buddhist Temple in Hirano ward, Osaka city.

Jyoukokuji temple was originally founded by Saint Seikai Shinsho Shonin in Ebitani village in 1286 and was moved here in 1574 until now. According to the record, it was called as Dainenbutsu Dojo in 1608 and was rebuilt by followers association in 1666.

Nisondo pavilion is located on the right-hand corner of the precincts of the temple and in the pavilion, a stone statue guardian deity of children (Jizobosatsu) is enshrined, the signature of which was recorded in 1311 and it has been registered as a cultural asset of Osaka prefecture as from February 20, 1970, as it is a quite rare old statue of guardian deity of children (Jizobosatsu) found in Osaka. According to the
monumental inscription engraved on both sides of the stone statue, it was built for the repayment of kindness and memorial service in favour of Kohikyuu-ni and Shinsho. In addition, there is a kasa touba with the name in 1293 in the corner of yard, which indicates the long history of this temple.
