Manshû-ji is a Buddhist temple in Mitarai, Hiroshima prefecture, said to have been founded by Taira no Kiyomori when, caught in a storm on his way to Kyoto, he came ashore there. Images enshrined there include one of the bodhisattva Jizô associated with the curing of disease, and one of the 11-headed bodhisattva Kannon.
