History

Byakko

Located in the Watanabe district, Kouttsuji Temple illuminates the pathway of light for all seekers. Guiding pilgrims from the darkness of delusion toward the bright path of enlightenment, the temple transmits the wisdom-light of Shingon Buddhism. The radiant light reaches the deepest recesses of visitors' hearts, opening new pathways and directing them toward truth. Since ancient times, the temple's luminous guidance has rescued countless wanderers, and today it continues to shine brightly for those who have lost their way, providing clear direction and profound spiritual illumination.
