History

Byakko

Ryuudouin evokes a deep cave where dragons dwell, guarding esoteric teachings. Standing in Suttu-cho, this temple continues to convey that true value lies in what is unseen and unspoken. Like a dragon diving deep, gathering power in silence, releasing that might when the time calls—this subtle dharma this temple teaches eternally.
