History

Ankoku-ji stands in Soriyacho. The name we know means 'securing the nation.' Since ancient times, this temple has been a place of prayer for people's peace and national stability. Even through turbulent ages, this temple has guarded the light of prayer unwaveringly, continuing to bring solace and hope to all visitors. The truth it teaches is that a peaceful heart creates world peace.
