Chouounji, nestled on Awaji's shores, is a sacred place where ancient seafarers wove prayers into ocean sounds. The white fox knows thousands of fishermen have come seeking bountiful seas and safe return. The harmony of wave and temple bell sounds brings deep peace, revealing the protection of sea deities. This ancient faith continues guiding sea peoples.
