History

Byakko

Representing the deep meditative state of a resting dragon, Ryugan-an serves as a secret training ground for Zen practitioners. Within the dragon's slumber lies eternal wisdom, and here the mind's inner eye opens to truth. Deep within Higashiyama, seekers encounter their original nature.
