History

Byakko

This imperial tomb honors Emperor Kogen, whose spirit guards the prosperity and peace of the realm. Enshrined upon Nara's sacred soil, the tomb carries the weight of ancient history and imperial majesty. Those who visit this hallowed ground feel the reverence of ages past. The divine spirit of the emperor continues to bless the nation with stability and unity. I have witnessed countless pilgrims come here to offer prayers for national peace and imperial protection.
