History

Enman-ji, true to its name meaning perfect completion, has long gathered those wishing for the fulfillment of all endeavors. Within the quiet of Yama-machi I have watched, countless prayers have been offered since ancient times. This place filled with prayers for perfect fulfillment continues to serve as a beacon guiding visitors' wishes to realization.
