A temple dwelling beside the castle, protecting this place through long ages. The ancient records we know speak of countless wishes fulfilled at this sacred ground. Within the silence and steadfast faith of this place, people build castles of their own hearts. Prayers, layered like stone walls, continue to welcome new prayers even now.
