History

Byakko

The twin lunar mausolea within Senzan-ji's sacred precincts have guarded the imperial lineage since ancient times. Like moonlight illuminating the darkness, the spirits of both emperors continue to shine upon Kyoto. Spiritual practitioners have long visited these sites at night, experiencing profound meditation beneath the celestial glow.
