Nichiryūhōji
Gifu Seki Shimonosho 4585
History
Nichiryūhōji, nestled in the mountains of Seki, is a sacred site deeply connected to water and the dragon deity, as its name with 'dragon' suggests. As the character 'peak' indicates, it is located near the summit of a mountain in a mystical place where one can overlook the sea of clouds. Since ancient times, it has gathered faith for rain-making prayers and protection from water disasters, becoming an important place of prayer for people engaged in agriculture. It is truly a sacred site worthy of spiritual practice, where one can simultaneously feel both the harshness and blessings of nature.
