Virtual Tama Aqueduct Bando 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #24 Ryuun-ji Temple

 

     It is unknown when, why, and how Chiken-ji Temple was founded in Shimouma-Hikisawa Village, Ebara County, Musashi Province, where Asahi Elementary School is located.  The temple declined, and Priest Setsugai inherited the precincts and founded Ryuun-ji Temple there in 1699.  The temple was badly damaged in the 1855 Edo Earthquake, and was moved to Nozawa Village, which had been newly developed in Ebara County in the 1640's.  After World War II, the area was rezoned and the temple was moved to its present place.
