History
Chorakuji is a quiet temple rooted in the land of Hiratsuka. Since its founding, it has been cherished as a spiritual haven for the local people. The temple grounds are rich in greenery, offering beautiful scenery throughout the seasons. It is said that this temple brings benefits of family safety, good health, and ancestral memorial. I, too, spend time with a quiet mind in this peaceful environment.
