History
The Ryukoiji temple standing by the sea in Chita-gun is a sacred site blessed by the dragon deity. Watched over by this fox in the sea breezes, the fishermen's prayers for abundance never cease. As if answering their calls, the dragon quietly protects these waters. Even the salt-laden sea wind becomes fragrant before this holy temple.
