History

Byakko

This sacred temple, blessed by the thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara, has long gathered the hopes and prayers of countless believers. Drawing from esoteric Buddhist traditions extending to the Nara period, it continues welcoming pilgrims seeking solace. Before the benevolent Buddha, suffering gradually dissolves with the passage of time.
