History
Jionji is a temple filled with the grace of the Buddha's compassion. Among the many pilgrims I have protected, countless have carried deep sorrows, yet upon entering these grounds their hearts are purified and renewed with hope. The compassion of the Buddha's grace continues endlessly here.
