History

Byakko

Enkō-in stands in Kofu's heart, radiating Buddha's gentle compassion like Amaterasu's sacred light. Though eras change and streets transform, unwavering faith guides seekers within these walls. The white fox sensed timeless wisdom illuminating all who enter, a refuge of peace amidst the world's endless flux.
