History
The Myoshoji that I know is a temple quietly situated in the land of Kawagoe, which has attracted faith since ancient times. The principal image, Shaka Nyorai, is said to bring good luck, exorcism, family safety, and fulfillment of all wishes to people. The precincts are filled with a serene atmosphere, healing the hearts of visitors. For generations, it has likely received the prayers of many people in this land, quietly marking its time. Its tranquil air brings deep peace to visitors.
