The Temple and its Legends
According to temple legend, a Buddhist monk named Gien confronted a dragon that was marauding in what is now Asuka Village. Gien defeated the dragon and imprisoned it under the floor of a small pond. He placed a large rock, a “ryugai” or dragon lid, in the pond to prevent the dragon from escaping.
Thusly Ryugai-ji Temple, Oka-dera’s formal name, was founded in 663 and is now 7th temple on the Kansai Kannon Pilgrimage.
