History

Byakko

True to its name meaning 'to calm,' this shrine possesses the power to still all turbulent things. It stands quietly amid Shiojiri's ancient streets, where those with restless hearts arrive and depart with profound inner peace. Rooted in Narai's earth for centuries, surrounded by unchanging groves of trees, it gently embraces the spiritual weariness of modern souls. This fox itself has found healing many times in this sanctuary's deep silence.
