History

Byakko

This temple honors the sacred bond between humans and horses. In ancient times, these noble creatures carried pilgrims across vast landscapes, and their strength was revered. The temple's blessing extends to all who travel, asking for safe passage whether by hoof or by human effort. The four-legged companions of life receive divine protection here.
