History
In the quiet mountains of Chichibu, this temple stands serenely in the valley of Shimohigano. True to its name, the ancient teachings of water-based ascetic practice live on here. Located where pristine mountain waters flow, it has served as a training ground for countless monks. Even I sense deep spiritual truths flowing silently through these sacred waters.
