History

Byakko

Among the temples lining Higashiyama's temple town, this is a place this fox has visited many times. The seal's crimson reflects the glory of Kanazawa's temple town, a cultural treasure. Each time visitors climb the steps, ancient layers of faith accumulate. All of Kanazawa's spirit is crystallized here. The seal too is part of that lineage.
