What is jizo?

Jizo is a statue of Buddhist saint, the Bodhisattva generally 
standing by the country roadside. 
 
Jizo is considered as guardian deities of children who can 
protect children from demons of hell.
Most jizo shave their heads and often wear red apron.


地蔵は田舎の道路わきに立っている仏教の菩薩の石像で、
子供を地獄の鬼から守る守護神と信じられています。

地蔵はたいてい頭髪をそり落とし、赤いエプロンをしていすのが多いです。
