History

Byakko

As the guardian shrine protecting Kushiro, it has received the prayers of countless pilgrims. Enveloped in the quiet of Kome-cho, it continues to convey the wishes of ancestors to future generations. Having transcended times of war and suffering, it now cultivates a heart of compassion and peace. That light is something even this ancient spirit wishes to protect.
