History

Fukuzo-ji breathes life in the foothills of Mount Akagi. Since ancient times it has quietly continued praying to increase the fortune of people in this land. When I visit with the changing seasons, I always find new life stories written here. Those seeking increased fortune, those wishing to purify their hearts, all gather in this place seeking healing and strength. Wrapped in deep mountains, the voice of a monk's prayer echoing through silence can still be heard.
