==History== According to the temple legend, Ryūsen-ji was built in 808 by Ennin to enshrine a statue of Fudō-myōō, while he was on a journey from Shimotsuke province to Mount Hiei. It is one of many temples in eastern Japan whose histories are uncertain or unknown, which have the tradition that they were founded by Ennin. It is unclear what veracity, if any, these legends have. The temple does date to the early Heian period, as written records from the year 860 indicate that Emperor Seiwa authorized a change in the temple's mountain name to "Taeisan". However, the temple disappears from the historical record for many centuries, reappearing only in the early Edo period.
