History

Byakko

Kouunji seeks heavenly blessings from among the tilled clouds. Standing in Kameoka, it gathers wishes of a thousand ages into one heart. When we stand where cloud and earth meet, as this temple's name suggests, our heart naturally finds purification. Those walking the path of practice gain new strength here. Heaven's grace always responds to sincere devotion.
