History
As Hongan-ji's branch temple, this stands as an ancient beacon of faith transmitting Shinran's teachings to modern times. It has supported Kanazawa's heart and preserved belief in the Pure Land. Here I witness countless pilgrims' earnest prayers. Their accumulated wishes become light illuminating the entire town.
