History

Byakko

Standing in Tomoecho, this temple has existed since ancient times as a beacon transmitting the profound wisdom of Buddhist law. Through the many generations I have watched as a white fox, this temple's teachings have continually saved the hearts of people. Surrounded by ancient trees, this place brings deep peace and the power of wish fulfillment to all who visit.
