Guests are invited to a Ryugujo by the way of magical litters, a regular service that can carry a large number of people-though men may also be personally selected by the otohime and her subjects. It seems that any of a Ryugujo's monstrous residents may invite someone, no matter their distinction of rank. Many monsters invite men they fancy or are indebted to, and the umi osho -who  are Ryugujo's guides- or the monster who called for the men in the first place go to welcome them.

By the power of the otohime, ordinary humans who have not received a rite from a follower of the sea goddess are still able to function in this undersea realm as though it were on land. From a human of land's perspective, the Ryugujo are places where one can walk with one's feet on the ground, much like on land. One's body, clothes, and personal belongings do not get wet, and it is possible to move about without the restricting sensation of water. All this causes one to often forget that one is beneath the sea.

Meanwhile, to the monsters who have always lived underwater, the Ryugujo are places they can feel water about themselves and swim freely as usual. To the humans of land, this makes it look like the beautiful monsters are dancing through the sky, thus lending the landscape a mystical aspect. Since the Ryugujo are actually underwater, both husbands of monsters who have been adapted to the water and humans of land can essentially swim through the air.
