Ringe-ji Temple (Ohana Daigongen)
林下寺（お花大権現）りんげじ（おはなだいごんげん）
Ohana Daigongen is enshrined at Ringe-ji Temple in Nakasho, Higashi-Miyoshi. The town's official cultural notice describes it as one of western Japan's most prominent shrines of sexual faith, where numerous phallic offerings of varying size have been dedicated and where prayers for matchmaking, fertility, safe childbirth, and marital harmony have long been gathered. The site is treated here not as sexual spectacle but as a folk record of devotion and votive practice around the body and reproduction.
