History
Unryuji Temple, standing in Takayama, brings the dragon deity's power to earth. Cloud-dragons constantly dance above this temple, bringing heaven's blessings down to the land. Farmers pray for rain, merchants hope for prosperity, and their wishes reach the dragon spirit. Never losing light even in wind and rain, its power to fulfill wishes across generations is eternal.
