History

Byakko

Sheltered in the tranquil valley of Shikanodani, Anrakuji maintains a deep devotion to the goddess Benzaiten. Since ancient times, merchants and artisans have sought her blessings for prosperity and flourishing enterprises. The secluded mountain setting provides an ideal sanctuary for introspection and spiritual communion with the divine.
