History

Byakko

In ancient times, the Jizo Bodhisattva descended upon Katsura and a hall was established to enshrine this compassionate deity. Revered as the guardian of children and cherished by those seeking safe childbirth, this temple has been a beacon of faith for generations. The devotion of its visitors has never wavered, and the prayers offered here continue to bring blessings to families throughout the seasons. Such enduring faith brings joy to our hearts.
