History

Kiko-ji, founded under Emperor Shomu's enlightened patronage, stands as a testament to the propagation of Buddhism in ancient Japan. Built during the Great Buddha's construction era, this sanctuary preserves the imperial wish for national protection. The teachings shared here continue to illuminate and guide all who seek spiritual truth.
