龍渓院, Buddhist temple in Okazaki, Japan.

Ryukei-in Temple features traditional wooden architecture with curved roofs, guardian statues at the entrance, and multiple ceremonial halls within its grounds.

The temple maintains its original structural elements from the Momoyama period, when Buddhist temples underwent substantial architectural modifications throughout Japan.

Monks at Ryukei-in Temple perform daily rituals, including morning ceremonies, meditation sessions, and the maintenance of ancestral graves within the temple grounds.

Visitors can participate in meditation sessions at the temple, where cushions and basic instruction are provided by resident Buddhist practitioners.

The temple contains a specialized meditation hall where the floor boards produce specific sounds when walked upon, helping practitioners maintain mindful walking.
