Onsendera Temple

4.0

"This temple is a five-minute walk from Ryujin Onsen bus stop. Visitors should follow the path on the other side of the river toward Ryujin Onsen Motoyu. It is just past Nanda Ryuo Shrine. Kobo Daishi is said to have discovered the hot spring in the ninth century after receiving a message from Nanda Ryuo and founded the hot spring, dedicating it to the Buddha Yakushi Nyorai. The temple was dubbed ""Onsendera"" (""Hot Spring Temple"") when the monk Meisan rebuilt the Ryuo Shrine Yakushido. Since it is located in a hot spring resort area, it receives large numbers of visitors. Some of the current buildings were reconstructed in recent years."
