History
A temple embodying the true dwelling place of Buddha, where the sound of nembutsu has echoed countless nights in Nagoya's Higashi Ward. The visitors' hearts I have perceived are filled with longing for the Pure Land. Enshrouded in Amida's light, the hall continues as a sanctuary of peace for countless hearts.
