History
Daio-in, standing in Miyata-cho in Hitachi, has served as a spiritual haven for those walking the path of ascetic practice. The sincere intentions of pilgrims seeking the Buddhist way and striving to purify their hearts find cleansing and renewal within these sacred walls. On ground I have watched over countless times, devoted practitioners continue to gather and offer their earnest prayers.
