History
Ennouji is an old temple in the land of Fukaya. Its history is old, and it has gathered the faith of the local people. The quiet precincts calm the hearts of visitors and make them forget the hustle and bustle of daily life. The name Ennō may contain a wish for perfect ability, that is, the power to accomplish all things. This temple has become an important place for local people to find peace of mind. I also visit its serene space often.
