History
Among the ancient temple buildings of Yada, Daimonbo stands as one of the oldest, serving as a spiritual refuge for practitioners. Passing through its magnificent gate entrance one enters the austere world of monastic discipline. Countless monks have walked the path toward enlightenment, and their prayers are enshrined within the stone Buddha images that grace these grounds.
