Gotokuji is said to be the birth places of the “Maneki-neko”.
Why so many Manekineko are displayed is that you wish on Manekineko, after you wish come true, you back to Manekineko to the temple, you can receive another benefit. So you can find many people's wishes come true.
You can buy one of them from Gotokuji for 8 sizes around 300 (2 cm) yen to 5,000 yen (30 cm).
Why don't you visit Gotokuji to your wishes come true. You can keep the Manekoneko at home until the wish is come true, and visit Gotokuji again to return it at the temple to give thanks.
