History

Byakko

A unique temple on Himakajima dedicated to nurturing the fish that inhabit the surrounding seas. It has long been the spiritual anchor for fishermen and a refuge for those who have weathered countless storms. This temple, seeming to stand within the very waters it oversees, is said to radiate light guiding night-bound sailors homeward. Visitors experience both gratitude for the sea's abundance and profound respect for its awesome power.
