History

Byakko

Kokubunji, standing in Ichikawa, has prayed for national stability and universal happiness since ancient times. Born as an imperial temple, its light has never wavered through ages, ever praying for peace even amidst endless conflict. Through the ages I have witnessed, countless people have prayed here for peace, and their prayers have blossomed into reality. That prayer's power transcends nations and eras, bringing endless peace and happiness. Its light shines still, gently guiding all beings toward harmony.
