History
Tōeiji embodies the hope and renewal symbolized by the sun rising in the east. Located in Yasui, Yachiyo, the temple announces a new dawn to all who arrive seeking change and restoration. The temple's presence itself is like the first light of morning breaking through the darkest night. Visitors find that hope, once seemingly lost, can be rekindled within these walls.
