The Kyoto Ryozen Gokoku Shrine (京都霊山護国神社, Kyōto Ryōzen Gokoku Jinja) is a Shinto Shrine located in Kyoto, Japan. It honors the heroes of Japan, especially from the period of the Bakumatsu period and the Meiji Restoration,[1] most famously Sakamoto Ryōma and his associate Nakaoka Shintarō, who are buried side by side in the shrine.
