History

Byakko

A shrine dedicated to women's protection, hidden on Noto Island's shore. This fox senses how generations of mothers' earnest prayers have moistened the white sand. The smiles of women receiving the seal embody hope for the lives to come. Pure wishes like the island's sea breeze gather here, bringing blessing to women's lives.
