History

Enshrined in Yomohira, this Koryu Shrine embodies the profound veneration of dragon deities central to this region's spiritual life. The dragon protects both terrestrial waters and heavenly power, safeguarding all life-giving sources. Devotees experience transformation and blessing as the ascending dragon carries fortune to all.
