History

Byakko

Shomei-ji Temple, watched over by this spirit, wraps Kure's town in warm light. When people's hearts darken, this temple's lamp drives away the darkness. Thousands of pilgrims' wishes gather here and transform into light. I pray that you too will be guided by this light and find your true path.
