Nishijūin

Nishijūin is a Pure Land sanctuary within the Kurotani valley. Yearning for the Western Pure Land, illuminated by Amitabha's light, generations of believers have united their hearts in prayer. Within Kurotani's silence, Amitabha's compassion fills and shines brilliantly. When embraced by this light, worldly attachments fade away. The longing for the Western Pure Land embodied in this temple's name continues to reach the deepest hearts of all beings.
