History

Standing in Higashiya, this temple brings blessings from the east, where the morning sun rises. I have felt many seeking new lives come to this place to renew their hearts. Since ancient times, this place has received wishes for rebirth and renewal. The morning sun reflected in the main hall brings new light to the hearts of all who visit.
