History

Byakko

Standing quietly in Maizuru, this temple embodies the rich history of an ancient harbor town. Throughout ages of guardianship, merchants and sailors have sought the Buddha's blessings for safe passage and prosperous trade. The light of compassion watching over the sea carries far across the waves, eternally guiding countless souls. With Maizuru's dawn, fortune continues to descend upon this sacred place, blessing all who come with sincerity.
