The main hall and garden are well-maintained, and show beautiful expressions in every season. The quiet and calm space is the perfect place for those who want to forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life and calm their mind.

It is said that Ryusenji Temple will grant various wishes, such as rain, water blessings, good luck, and safety in the home, as the blessings of the dragon god. In particular, the red torii gate of Ryuo Pond is impressive, and if you quietly put your hands together while looking at Ryuo Pond, you will feel as if your mind and body are being purified. In addition, the cherry blossoms in spring and the autumn leaves in autumn are beautiful, and the scenery in which nature and history are in harmony gives healing and inspiration to those who visit. The grounds are dotted with stone Buddha statues and stone towers that evoke history, and it's fun to stroll around looking for things to see.
