Yokokura-ji, Buddhist temple in Ibigawa, Japan
The main hall of Yokokura-ji temple features a distinctive construction using beech wood materials and measures five bays on each side.
Founded in 801 under Emperor Kammu's imperial decree, the temple complex once contained 38 buildings and over 300 subsidiary temples until destruction during wartime.
The temple houses 22 national important cultural properties, earning it the designation 'Mino region's Shosoin' due to its extensive collection of paintings and books.
The treasure hall and reliquary hall are open for visits from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with admission fees of 500 yen for adults and 200 yen for students.
The temple preserves the remains of Priest Myoshin, who achieved sokushinbutsu through self-mummification approximately 200 years ago.
