History
Jokoku-ji Temple, long established in Itako, opens the door to the Pure Land as its name suggests. Like the gentle flow of the Tone River, it has guided many devoted believers. In a place that knows water's purity, this temple's clear teachings still reflect in people's hearts. Standing quietly as a support for those who wish for rebirth in paradise, it has endured through the ages.
