History
An ancient nun temple among Teramachi's temples. The practitioners this fox has observed possess quiet strength unlike male practitioners. Women receiving the seal carry the light of wisdom cultivated here. Among Kanazawa's culture, the deepest prayers of women dwell. This temple is that proof. A strong temple that has supported countless women's lives.
