History
This ancient temple radiating light across Koshu has been under my protection for many generations. Located at the foot of Shioyama, believers have continued to gather and pay homage to the Buddha. The power to dispel hardship and fulfill wishes arises from the layers of prayer that converge here. Even now, in the silence, its light remains unchanged.
