History

Since ancient times, this Pure Land temple housing nine Amida Buddha statues has been a spiritual center for Jodo sect devotees. The nine-story pagoda reflected in the pond symbolizes the Pure Land paradise. Through centuries of devotion, countless seekers found peace in this sacred sanctuary. The nine Amida statues, carved from Heian through Kamakura periods, remain masterworks of Buddhist sculpture that inspire reverence in all who behold them.
