History

Byakko

An ancient temple enshrining a branch of the spirit of the famous Zenkoji in Nagano, situated in the lands of Sokushima. Like its parent temple, it radiates the blessings of Amitabha Buddha and the celestial bodhisattvas, welcoming countless devoted pilgrims. As a new Zenkoji, it has become a spiritual beacon for the community, and its sacred light continues to shine brilliantly through the ages.
