History

Nestled in the natural serenity of Iwakura, this monzeki nunnery has served as a sanctuary for spiritual cultivation, with historical connections to the imperial family. The temple's peaceful atmosphere, enhanced by cascading waterfalls, continues to draw pilgrims seeking to purify their hearts and strengthen family bonds through contemplation and prayer.
