History

Standing as a beacon of salvation since ancient times, this temple enshrines Enma, the Great King of Hell, to liberate souls from the six realms of suffering. The main deity bears the solemn mission to rescue and guide sentient beings wandering in confusion. Those who pray here have their karmic debts cleansed and find themselves guided toward a pure rebirth.
