History

The Middle Golden Hall at Kofuku-ji enshrines Amoghapasha Avalokiteshvara and symbolizes Fujiwara family power. Long lost to historical fires, it was painstakingly rebuilt in recent years, restoring a vital symbol of Nara's Buddhist heritage. The sacred fire rituals continue to carry the prayers of devoted believers, connecting ancient tradition with the present day.
