History

This temple in Egawa, bearing the name of good fortune itself, has long been a sacred place that attracts happiness and blessing. Countless wishes that I have witnessed ascend equally to heaven before this ancient hall. Merchants and scholars still flock here without ceasing, receiving blessings of prosperity and success.
