History
The name Unryuin teaches the seeking of dragon-like freedom above the clouds. This ancient temple standing in Teracho is a guidepost for those seeking to abandon attachment and advance toward liberation. Like the flow of clouds, the sufferings of human life appear and vanish. Those possessing both the strength of a dragon and the gentleness of clouds will surely achieve their desires.
