Juhō-ji

Juhō-ji temple incorporates traditional Japanese architectural elements with its main hall, pagoda, and several entrance gates arranged within the complex grounds.

The temple traces its origins to the early spread of Buddhism in Japan, with Prince Shōtoku inviting Korean craftsmen to assist in its construction.

The temple maintains its role as a center for Buddhist teachings while hosting annual ceremonies that connect local residents with traditional practices.

Visitors can access the temple grounds at no cost, though certain interior areas require admission fees and advance reservations for viewing specific artifacts.

The temple's main shrine houses a 180-centimeter wooden Thousand-Armed Kannon statue, which displays different facial expressions under varying light conditions.
