History
Chōsenji, rooted in the place where pure springs flow eternally, offers to all visitors the cleansing grace of pristine waters. The white fox perceives that the water here transcends mere utility—it is sacred, a living symbol of life itself. Through ages, those seeking to live with clarity and health have gathered here. The temple's blessing flows as inexorably as the eternal springs beneath its sacred ground.
