History

Named 'Higher Ascent,' this temple stands on elevated ground overlooking Setoda's islands, its name reflecting the wish to elevate visitors' spirits. What I perceive is the quiet strength that fills this sacred place. The island's breeze, the ocean's sound, and the light of prayer unite to elevate the souls of all who come.
