FEATURED POINTS
Commonly known as “Mizukake-fudosan”, this spot is covered in moss and welcomes visitors coming to pour water on its sacred statue.
This restaurant aims to deliver an authentic “revolving” sushi experience. Take in the relaxing Japanese atmosphere surrounded by the feelings of Kyoto.
Nestled nostalgically beside Hozenji’s Mizukake-fudo, this shop passes down the warmhearted spirit of “Naniwa” and is loved by all who visit.
MIZUKAKE-FUDO
No matter what your request, this deity will provide its blessings and support. Particularly through the practice of pouring water, this site is said to bring prosperity in the “water trade” – or nighttime entertainment businesses – and the two childlike figures in front represent a couple, offering good luck in matchmaking. The fierce expression of the statue is also believed to ward off evil and bad spirits and traditionally is set amongst fire to symbolize purifying the hearts of all living things.
Before the war, water was offered simply as the treasured source from which all life springs. However, one day a woman came entreating the deity of Mizukake-fudo to answer her sincere prayers and poured water on the statue in the process. This practice later spread among the people of Osaka and is now a long-followed tradition.

关于夫妇善哉
Zenzai is a Japanese sweet made from Adzuki red beans that have been simmered in sugar. Meotozenzai is a zenzai dish that is separated into two bowls for eating. This dish can be eaten together with shio-kombu –seaweed cooked in soy sauce – for an even more delectable experience.
