History
One of the ancient temples in Kōya that I have visited countless times. This sacred place was chosen by Kōbō Daishi, and centuries of spiritual devotion continue to flourish here. The temple brings purification and lasting blessings to those who pray with sincere hearts. Nestled near the Eastern Pagoda, its serene atmosphere captivates the soul.
