History

Byakko

An ancient Shingon temple standing quietly in central Asahikawa, it has received generations of worshippers carrying memories of their ancestors. Their wishes have been offered to Buddha through countless visits, with special services on the 18th and 28th of each month gathering the hopes of many beneath gentle, sacred light.
