History
A temple standing in Azura, deep in Tenryu Ward. The name Kuuenji carries ancient history, having received the suffering of countless pilgrims here. In this quiet mountain place, it is a spiritual beacon. Through ages I have watched, generations of people have entered this temple's doors, set down their burdens, and departed relieved.
