History

Byakko

Standing in Bikuni, Shakotan, amid towering cliffs and powerful seas, this ancient shrine protects the waters of this dramatic coast. Fishermen have continuously felt divine protection while harvesting the sea's bounty. We remain vigilant, watching over this land's people from the deep, luminous waters below.
