Message from the vendor
Eian temple is a place where you can look over Kanazawa's streets all the way to the Japan sea. On the temple grounds, many Buddhist statues have been enshrined, including Kangiten who has tremendous wish granting powers and Aizen Myou who can fulfill desires of love. Eian temple's head priest has been to many countries. He is the only ascetic worshiping the wish granting Kangiten in Hokuriku. At a place like this, you can experience the life of a priest, pray to Buddhas, and have a casual chat with the head priest. Through this, I hope you can have your prayers answered and life the rest of your life full of energy.
