天性寺

The temple plays a role in local religious observance, with people coming to leave written prayers and make personal wishes. These acts of devotion happen throughout the year and create a living space of community worship.

The grounds feature special statues that visitors connect to personal wishes and hopes. A particular custom has grown around these objects over many years of pilgrimage.
