History
Ryuushoji symbolizes the dragon-like flexibility and flourishing prosperity. This hall standing in the Gokurakuji region embodies the teaching that this world is the Pure Land. Under the protection of the Dragon King Bodhisattva, the lives of those who visit flow like water—soft yet powerful. The dragon spirit hidden deep within the Mino mountains continues to shine with undiminished brilliance.
