History

Byakko

Where mountains meet sky, this temple holds the ancient power of three lights—sun, moon, and stars—guiding all who venture into its sacred precincts. Yamabushi priests once meditated here, their devotion crystallized in stone and prayer. That holy lineage persists, blessing travelers and farmers alike with unwavering divine light, ja.
