百済寺, Buddhist temple in Koryo, Japan.
The temple features a three-story pagoda with central plank doors and latticed windows on the side sections, covered by traditional tile roofing.
According to historical records, the temple appears in the Nihon Shoki chronicles of 639 CE, when Emperor Jomei ordered the construction of a palace and temple.
The main hall, known as Taishokukan, houses life-sized statues of Bishamonten, Kannon Bosatsu, and other Buddhist deities brought from Tanzan Shrine.
The temple sits 3 kilometers south of Matsuzuka Station, with a parking area that accommodates 220 cars and 20 buses for visitors.
The temple grounds include the Sanskrit Pool, which local tradition attributes to the famous Buddhist monk Kukai, founder of the Shingon school.
