History

Chofuku-ji, standing in Daigo, Kuji District, watches over the clear waters of the Kuji River as an ancient temple where profound faith takes root in serene silence. In this mountain sanctuary, I have witnessed countless times how pilgrims' prayers rise heavenward on the river's currents. It continues to serve as a spiritual refuge for those walking the path of lasting happiness.
