History
Honzuiji, nestled in the port town of Miura, is a temple that has gathered the faith of local people since ancient times. It is said to bestow blessings upon those who pray for family safety, business prosperity, and the fulfillment of their wishes. I spend a time of peace and comfort in the quiet precincts, welcomed by the warm smile of the chief priest. By receiving the goshuin, I feel an even deeper connection. The temple's serene atmosphere and the connection to the local community make it a place of spiritual significance.
