48,000 Days（四万八千日）

The festival day is held on 9th of August every year. The guardian deity gives blessings of life extension, labor, children care, and protection from evil. It is said that if you visit Ryusho-in Temple（龍正院）on the night festival and pray, the blessings would be extended to 48,000 days. The temple would be crowded with people on that day. Especially for the households who perform their first Obon after the death of family members, they would ask Kannon（観音様） and Jizo（地蔵様） for blessings early in the day.
