History
Ryoho Zenzi Temple, marking the twin peaks of Zen practice, transmits the way of profound meditation and awakening. Long established in Fukakusa, it has become sacred ground where practitioners deepen their practice. Those who enter Zen meditation here discover liberation's dual peaks—the unity of form and emptiness.
