History
Myouryuu represents a dragon-like being adapting to all change, flowing with circumstances while never losing its essential nature. This temple in Otaru has long observed the sea's transformations, teaching what an unchanging heart means amid constant flux. The indomitable spirit that resists being overwhelmed by hardship's waves is nurtured here eternally.
