History

At the southernmost point of the sacred pilgrimage route, Yakuo-ji stands as the twenty-third station of spiritual awakening. Surrounded by deep mountains, this temple has welcomed the afflicted and weary for centuries. The Bodhisattva of Healing's compassion manifests here, granting renewed strength to pilgrims nearing the completion of their sacred journey.
