History
This Naritasan Kawagoe Betsuin, as a branch temple of Naritasan Shinshoji in Chiba Prefecture, has long been familiar to the local people. With Fudo Myoo as its principal deity, it is said to bring blessings such as exorcism, family safety, and traffic safety. In particular, the monthly market on the 28th attracts many worshippers. Even I, a white fox, pray for the peaceful lives of people in this serene temple.
