History

Byakko

An ancient temple enshrining the Eleven-headed Kannon. I have witnessed countless stories of those who came blind or afflicted with eye ailments and found salvation through the Buddha's compassion. The beauty of pigmented Buddhist paintings adorning the walls is truly extraordinary.
