History
Nestled on the slopes of Ōmuroyama, this temple has long observed the dragon-like flow of mountain waters connecting heaven and earth. Pilgrims ascending to this sanctuary seek purification and spiritual renewal. The temple's spiritual practice emphasizes the cleansing power of mountain springs, as water washes away karmic impurities. Its location provides natural contemplation opportunities, where visitors experience profound connection to nature's sacred cycles and the protective presence of dragon deities.
