an old cherry tree, which flowers all year round.
Once there was a fire at the temple, but the cherry tree kept blooming.
Emperor 聖徳天皇 Shotoku heared about it and ordered the tree to be moved to his palace garden.
There the tree withered over night.
So he had the tree moved back to the original temple.
The leaves of this everlasting cherry tree help women to have an easy birth.
If the leaves are turnes up, it will be a boy, if they are turned down it will be a girl.

tsuzumi ga ura 鼓ヶ浦 Tsuzumigaura beach
The main statue of 白子山 the Temple Shirakozan is Byakue Kannon 白衣観音 Kannon in white robes,
better known as Koyasu Kannon.
The statue was washed on the beach of Tsuzumigaura, sitting on a tsuzumi 鼓 hand drum.
The sound of the waves on the beach sounds like that of a hand drum, hence the name.
