History
Donkai-in is the inner sanctuary of Kongoji Temple, nestled in the sacred Mount Asama. Standing at the mountain's summit where one gazes upon the heavens, this ancient temple has long served as a place of spiritual practice and purification. Surrounded by crystalline waters and pure mountain air, the wishes of all pilgrims rise to the divine realm.
