History

Byakko

This shrine, nestled high upon the mountain, stands as a sacred site alongside other renowned temples. Since the Heian period, merchants have ascended these slopes seeking its blessings. Surrounded by the Awa mountains, this deity has been revered for centuries as a source of financial fortune and divine blessing. Even now, I continue to watch over the prosperity and happiness of all who visit this sacred place.
