History

Mitsuhiro-ji is an ancient temple quietly standing in the land of Makabe. Its history is old, and prayers from countless people have been offered here. Trees that evoke a sense of eternal time grow in the precincts, calming the hearts of visitors. It is said that the principal image of Buddha listens to people's wishes and watches over them with compassion. It is a precious place where one can quietly face oneself in a tranquil atmosphere.
