Byakko

Known as the temple where wishes come true, this sanctuary echoes with the melodious chirping of bell crickets.

Visitors who climb these sacred grounds carrying their deepest wishes find that the bodhisattva's compassion answers their heartfelt pleas with gentle guidance toward realization.
