History

The Taiho-ji that I know is a temple quietly standing in the land of the ancient capital Kamakura. It is said to offer benefits such as good luck and fortune, family safety, and the fulfillment of wishes, praying for people's healthy lives and happiness. The tranquil atmosphere of the precincts offers solace to visitors. I too am drawn to the warm aura of this temple and visit often. It is a historic temple where the prayers of many people have been offered since ancient times.
