Ryūshō-in, Buddhist temple in Narita, Japan.
The Ryūshō-in temple stands within a large religious complex containing multiple halls and structures dedicated to Buddhist practices and ceremonies.
Founded in 838, the temple gained prominence after Tokugawa Ieyasu relocated the capital to Edo in 1603, strengthening its connection to military leadership.
The temple maintains regular Goma rituals involving the ceremonial burning of wooden amulets, connecting modern practitioners to centuries of Buddhist traditions.
Visitors can reach the temple through a one-kilometer path from Narita stations, passing numerous shops and restaurants along Omotesando street.
The temple houses an original image of Acala brought by Shingon priest Kanchō, which was used in fire rituals to suppress rebellions.
