History

Byakko

An ancient temple in Handa whose very name evokes the Buddha's light shining through darkness. Here, the illumination of the Buddha has dwelled since antiquity, protecting households, healing sickness, and dispelling the shadows of ignorant hearts. Countless generations have come with their earnest prayers, and the venerable old trees within the temple grounds have witnessed these sincere supplications through the long ages.
