History
An ancient Pure Land Buddhism temple nestled in the mountains of Kutsutani. Throughout the passage of time that I have watched over, countless practitioners were guided by the light of Amida Buddha. Within the silence, the chanting of the Buddha's name never ceases, and prayers have accumulated over many long years. As a sacred place where the faithful have gathered, it continues to welcome many visitors even now.
