History
Hozōji is a temple rooted in the community, nestled in a quiet residential area. Founded long ago, it has gathered the faith of many people. The precincts are well-maintained, and a refreshing atmosphere flows through them. The principal image of Buddha is said to pray for people's family safety and business prosperity. I feel the peaceful time and the power to bring solace that this temple possesses. Hozōji will continue to provide quiet healing to many people in the future.
