History

Enshrined beside a sacred waterfall in Koka, Genryu-ji Temple has been revered as a sanctuary of the dragon kami. The eternal flow of water cascading from the heights is the voice of the dragon deity, whose holy power manifests as pure waters nurturing this land. One can feel the very life force of the dragon when immersed in the waterfall's mist, a profound spiritual experience.
