History

Hotoku-ji, an ancient Zen temple cradled in the mountain valleys of Yagiu-shimo-machi, has been revered by those seeking the path of practice. This place I have watched, enveloped in silence, continues to guide the hearts of visitors toward deep meditation. This ancient temple where Zen teachings continue to shine serves as a training hall for countless spiritual seekers.
