History
Keianji, as I have learned, is an ancient temple standing at the site of the former Asuke magistrate's residence. In this land embraced by the mountains of Toyota, it is a place where the hearts of people praying for the peace and prosperity of the region gathered. Through many changing seasons and generations of accumulated faith, the grounds are filled with the deep silence of history. This temple continues to exist as a pillar of the village people's hearts.
