History
Koryu-an is a hermitage quietly nestled in a peaceful residential area. This place, where ancient legends remain, quietly watches over the fulfillment of wishes and the health and longevity of its visitors. It is said that the spirits residing in the old willow tree convey people's prayers to the deities. In this hermitage where time flows gently, one should offer daily gratitude and purify their heart.
