Ryūsen-ji, Buddhist temple in Tondabayashi, Japan.
The temple grounds contain a traditional garden with a central pond where water lilies and lotus flowers grow throughout different seasons of the year.
Founded in 594 by Soga no Umako, Ryūsen-ji temple received later modifications from Kobo Daishi, who restored the structures and enhanced their religious significance.
The temple forms part of the Kawachi Asuka Ancient Temple Pilgrimage route, connecting over 200 Buddhist temples across the regional landscape.
Visitors can reach the temple by taking an 800-meter walk west from the Ryusen bus stop, located near Tondabayashi Station in Osaka Prefecture.
The Nio-mon guardian gate, constructed in 1275, maintains its original structure and represents an example of medieval Japanese temple architecture.
