History
Toko-ji rests beside the healing waters of Yuminea hot spring, where warmth gently restores both body and spirit. Ancient ascetics purified themselves here before practice. Water cleanses all things—not through mere chemistry, but through nature's compassion. Every pilgrim who comes here finds themselves wrapped in this gentle renewal.
