History

Byakko

Hayashikuraji, nestled in Maebashi's Ishikura district, embodies the symbols of forest and storehouse. The forest's depths have long guided seekers' hearts toward silence, while the wisdom stored within ancient records transcends the trial of time. Standing quietly in this historic place, the temple represents a convergence of nature and history, offering pilgrims profound contemplation.
