History
This temple flows with the great compassion of Yakushi Buddha, the healing Buddha. For centuries in Kanazawa, it has heard the prayers of the afflicted and suffering. Medicine alone sometimes fails, but before this sacred place, both heart and body find healing and harmony. All health and happiness rest upon its eternal blessing.
