Anshoji Seiryuden Moss Banryu Dragon – The auspicious Seiryuden has a moss male dragon on the west side of the treasure hall rising powerfully and is about to ascend to heaven. The female dragon, loosely coiled on the east side, watches over the male dragon. A cloud of flame is rising around the dragon. The surrounding giant trees look like dragons dancing and the sky opens up as if they are waiting to descend and rise. Seiryuden Shrine, a sacred place that can be said to be the origin of Anshoji Temple’s origins was born in the mountains of Yamashina Kyoto and has been connected to 1200 years of life, which connect from the infinite past to the infinite future and continues to this day. The temple grounds, which were said to once have had over 700 temples have been lost, but everything in the temple precincts, down to the plants and trees that remain, is a symbol of the temple's life which connects the past to the future.
