The magnificent traditional architecture of the main hall and the solemn precinct lined with historic, ancient giant trees completely shut out urban noises, letting you feel a divine atmospheric flow that beautifully cleanses the heart upon entry. Serving as the supreme cradle of Shinbutsu-shugo (the harmony of Shinto and Buddhism), tracing historical stories while quietly putting your hands together provides a special moment to deeply purify your soul and touch Japan's ancient faith culture. Gage at beautiful gardens and old treasures to fully recharge holy energy.
