History

Byakko

Ryusenji is a historic temple located in Mikajiri, Kumagaya City. As a temple bearing the name of the dragon, it has long been cherished by local people. The dragon, worshipped as a sacred being governing water, has been the subject of prayers for rain and abundant harvests. Though situated in a quiet residential area, the temple grounds maintain an atmosphere of a separate world with remarkable tranquility. Carefully preserved by the parishioners of the area, it serves an important role in deepening community bonds through religious services and annual observances.
