History
The mandarin orange bears sacred connection to the imperial family, and I, bearing this blessed name, have dwelt long upon these lands of Maebashi. Since ancient times, I have been a sanctuary for prayers seeking imperial protection and long life. The ancient trees surrounding my grounds have witnessed generations of supplicants seeking family harmony and lasting happiness, their roots firmly grounded in history and faith.
