History

I, the white fox, speak of an ancient temple nestled in Nirasaki's rural mountains. Called Daiko-ji, it stands as a sanctuary dedicated to the salvation of all beings. Since ancient times, it has gathered the faith of villagers in this remote land. The temple bell rings morning and evening, its sound echoing through the mountain valleys, calling all who hear it toward Buddha's compassion. The lamp of sacred teachings kindled by countless priests still shines brightly today.
