Buzen Zenkō-ji, Buddhist temple in Usa, Japan
The temple buildings at Buzen Zenkō-ji extend across a large complex, featuring multiple prayer halls and ceremonial structures dedicated to Buddhist practices.
Founded in the 7th century, Buzen Zenkō-ji maintains its position as a joint temple of both Tendai and Jōdoshū schools of Mahayana Buddhism.
The temple preserves a hidden Buddha statue, known as hibutsu, which remains concealed from public view according to ancient Buddhist traditions.
Visitors can participate in traditional Buddhist ceremonies and explore the temple grounds, including the Daihongan, Niōmon, and Rokujizō structures.
Every six years, the temple holds the Gokaichō ceremony where a replica of the hidden statue is displayed to the public.
