History

Byakko

As the secondary shrine of the dragon deity at Yomohira, this sacred site deepens devotional practice and spiritual refinement for all who visit. Together with the main shrine, it maintains protection over the underground waters sustaining the region. The mystical presence here amplifies the dragon's blessing, elevating prayers from earth to heaven.
