Something I always thought was fascinating. Around my time I was always influenced by Chinese and Japanese Dragons that where displayed in Shinto temples and Buddhist Temples. Most dragons of this style, which are normally called Wyvern and are associated with Water element. The reason for this was their where Myths of dragons living in ponds and lakes rising from the sea and most of these stories come from Temples by the sea or ponds.
One story I enjoy even talks about this.
The Kinryū-no-Mai "Golden Dragon Dance" is an annual Japanese dragon dance performed at Sensō-ji, a Buddhist temple in Asakusa. The dragon dancers twist and turn within the temple grounds and outside on the streets. According to legend, the Sensō Temple was founded in 628 after two fishermen found a gold statuette of Kannon in the Sumida River, at which time golden dragons purportedly ascended into heaven. The Golden Dragon Dance celebrates the temple founding and allegedly provides good fortune and prosperity.
Something interesting to dream about. You can find all kinds of stories about dragons and their Myths and stories.
