Following the Genpei War, prayers for peace became widespread, leading Minamoto no Yoritomo to establish the Bando 33 Kannon pilgrimage sites during the early Kamakura period. As the fifth stop on this route, Shofukuji Temple (Iizumi Kannon) is known for hosting the earliest Daruma Doll Market in the Kanto region. Stalls selling Daruma dolls line the temple grounds, drawing families wishing for prosperity in business and household safety.
